SUMMARY:18th Financial Risks International Forum
DESCRIPTION:\nParis\, March 17 & 18\, 2025 \n\n\nThe Institut Louis Bachelier\, in cooperation with the Fondation du Risque and the Europlace Institute of Finance is pleased to invite you to the 18th Financial Risks International Forum. \n\n\nThis year’s forum will focus on the theme: \n\n\n“Shaping Financial Research: Data\, AI and New Challenges” \n\n\nOver the last 50 years\, academic research in finance and insurance has been transformed by technological advances\, globalization and financial crises. The rise of quantitative finance\, driven by advances in computing power\, enabled more sophisticated modelling of financial markets and instruments. The 2008 financial crisis spurred research into systemic risk\, regulation and financial stability. Recently\, the development of new datasets and technologies (such as machine learning\, Large Language Models or Decentralized Finance) has brought new tools to forecast\, optimize and assess risks. \nThis upcoming 18th Financial Risks International Forum aims to evaluate the advancements in financial research over the past few decades and to consider its future trajectory\, connected to the evolving needs of the industry. \n\n\n2025 Guest Speakers are:\n• Lin William Cong\, The Rudd Family Professor of Management & Professor of Finance\, Cornell University SC Johnson College of Business (Johnson)\n• David Hirshleifer\, Professor of Finance\, Marshall School of Business\, University of Southern California \nMore information: Risk Forum 2025 | 18TH FINANCIAL RISKS INTERNATIONAL FORUM \n\n

SUMMARY:Kristoffer NIMARK (Cornell University) "The macroeconomics of surveillance capitalism"
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Macro seminar\nTime : 12h15 – 13h30 \nDate : 17th  March 2025 \nSalle 3001 \nKristoffer NIMARK (Cornell University) “The macroeconomics of surveillance capitalism” \nAbstract: This paper studies modern life. You are born\, you consume a sequence of goods that may or may not leave you satisfied\, and then you die. To pay for the goods\, you work in a firm that tries to influence you (and others like you) to buy their product by placing ads that you have no possibility of escaping. Large firms use the predictive power of the data they collect to divert you away from goods that would leave you more satisfied than the ones you actually consume\, but leave firms with a smaller profit. Because you are less unique than you think\, your preferences are predictable from other consumers’ behavior\, leading to too much supply of mainstream products\, with too few options to express what little personality you have through your consumption choices. In your spare time\, you enjoy diversions that appear to be free\, but in fact only help firms to more efficiently divert you to their high margin products. It is unclear whether anything is quantitatively or qualitatively important. \nOrganizer : Julien PRAT \n
