Title:
Factor copula models for item response data
Date: 28/02/2018, Hour: 11:00
Place: Meeting Room A - Zeta Building

Abstract:
Factor or conditional independence models based on copulas are proposed for multivariate discrete data such as item response. The factor copula models have interpretations of latent maxima/minima (in comparison with latent means) and can lead to more probability in the joint upper and/or lower tail compared with factor models based on the discretized multivariate normal distribution (or multidimensional normal ogive model). Details on maximum likelihood estimation of parameters for the factor copula model are given, as well as analysis of the behavior of the log-likelihood. Our general methodology is illustrated with several item response data sets and it is shown that there is a substantial improvement on existing models from the criteria of log-likelihood and goodness-of-fit. This talk will be based on collaborative work with Harry Joe (U. of British Columbia).

Subject: open phd position in Rennes
Dear all,
J. Angst and myself have obtained a funding for a 3 years Phd
position whose subject mainly concerns random nodal sets with some
emphasis on universality properties. The phd would start in september
2018 under our joint supervision.
We attach to this email a brief description of the phd subject. In case you
might know some possibly interested students, feel free to forward this
announcement.
Interested students may contact us direclty by email.
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,

17^th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
CREDIT 2018
*/Small Business Risk, Financial Regulation/*
*/and Big Data Analytics/*
**
Venice, Italy
27 –28 September 2018
*GRETA Associati *(Venice, Italy), the *European Investment Fund *(EIF,
Luxembourg), *European DataWarehouse*(Frankfurt am Main, Germany) and
*Intesa Sanpaolo *(Milan, Italy) are co-sponsors of a Conference to be
held in Venice on September 27-28, 2018. The objective of the Conference
is to bring together academics, practitioners and PhD students working
in the area of risk management. The conference will provide an
opportunity for participants engaged in research at the forefront of
this area 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, organised under the auspices of the
*Department of Economics of the University Ca’ Foscari of Venice*, *ABI
- Italian Banking Association *and *European Investment Bank*, is the
*seventeenth* of a series dedicated to various aspects of credit risk.
/Since 2007, the financial crisis has triggered deep changes of various
kinds. Central banks have experimented with new monetary policies (low
interest rates, quantitative easing, forward guidance...). In the
meantime, the first steps towards a more neutral monetary policy are
taken. The banking industry has had to develop new asset management
strategies and to adjust its credit allocation practices in order to
cope with a new environment characterized, in particular, by a prolonged
period of very low risk-free returns. Meanwhile, regulatory frameworks
have been reshaped all around the world, with the introduction of new
requirements or guidelines including regulation on credit impairment
provisioning. All t//hese changes have called for a substantial amount
of research to improve the knowledge of the mechanisms at play during
the crisis, to design adapted policy tools and to provide a better
description of the new economic and financial environment.///
The organizers encourage submissions of papers on any topic within the
overall theme of the conference and in the following areas in particular:
* Loan level data and credit risk analysis: credit registries; big
data analytics; credit risk measurement; credit risk modelling;
* Financial regulation and credit cycles: macro-prudential regulation;
banking cycles; bank business models; rational inattention;
* Macro-economic determinants of SMEs’ credit risk and SME loan
portfolios: ECB policy; macro-parameters for SMEs’ credit risk;
industry sector specialization; loan portfolio allocation;
* IFRS9, credit impairments and SME financing: expected credit loss;
internal models versus standardized approach; procyclicality;
* The economic impact of government support measures (i.e. Credit
Guarantee Schemes, Venture Capital): availability; real effects;
inequality;
* Monetary policy, financial regulation and credit cycles:
unconventional monetary policy; monetary policy normalization;
macro-prudential tools; banking cycles;
* Macro-prudential regulation and real estate valuation:
macro-prudential tools; loan-to-value; loan-to-income; collateral
value; real estate prices.
The Scientific Committee for the Conference consists of:
*Hans Degryse *(KU Leuven, Halle Institute for Economic Research & CEPR,
Programme Chair)*; Monica Billio *(Ca’ Foscari University of Venice &
GRETA); *Vasso Ioannidou *(Lancaster University & CEPR); *Helmut
Kraemer-Eis *(Head of Research & Market Analysis, Chief Economist, EIF);
*Jan Pieter Krahnen *(SAFE - Goethe University); *Steven Ongena
*(University of Zurich, Swiss Finance Institute, KU Leuven &
CEPR);*Guillaume Plantin*(Sciences Po & CEPR); *Stephen Schaefer
*(London Business School); *Enrico Sette *(Bank of Italy); *Ludovic
Thebault *(European DataWarehouse).**
CALL FOR PAPERS
The final program will include both submitted and invited papers.
Acceptances received so far from invited speakers include *Tor Jacobson
*(Sveriges Riksbank), *Robert C. Merton*(MIT Sloan School of
Management), and *Guillaume Plantin *(Sciences Po & CEPR). The
Conference will also feature a panel discussion on researchers' and
practitioners' views of the major outstanding problems.
Those wishing to present a paper at the Conference should submit by *May
25, 2018 *to the address given below (preferably in electronic format).
Please indicate to whom correspondence should be addressed. Decisions
regarding acceptance will be made by *June 25, 2018*. The final version
of accepted papers must be received by August 31, 2018.
*European DataWarehouse*(Frankfurt am Main, Germany) will offer access
to its ABS loan level database <http://www.eurodw.eu/> to the authors of
the selected papers on the following topics: loan level data, credit
risk analysis, loan level data analytics, credit risk measurement,
credit risk modelling, loan-to-value, loan-to-income, collateral value,
real estate valuations. The access to the database will be given for a
period of 1 year.
