Greta Associati organizes the 13th International Conference on Credit Risk Evaluation Designed for Institutional Targeting in finance. This year the conference focuses on The New Financial Regulatory System: Challenges and Consequences for the Financial Sector and will provide an opportunity for participants to discuss both the causes and implications of recent events in financial markets and may, in turn, suggest fruitful directions for future research.
The conference takes place in Venice at the Scuola Grande di San Giovanni Evangelista on September 25-26.
The co-sponsors of the Conference are GRETA Associati (Venice, Italy), Research Center SAFE at Goethe University Frankfurt (Frankfurt, Germany), Intesa Sanpaolo (Milan, Italy) and SYRTO project. The Conference is organised under the auspices of the Department of Economics of the University Ca’ Foscari of Venice, ABI – Italian Banking Association and European Investment Bank Institute.

A new SYRTO Working Paper by Francisco Blasques, Siem Jan Koopman, Andre Lucas and Julia Schaumburg is now available online.

cant out-of-sample forecasts relative to both the historical average benchmark and the combined predictive mean regression modeling approach.
