24 Jul '21

20th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE CREDIT 2021 *Compound Risk: Climate, Disaster, Finance, Pandemic * Venice, Italy 23 –24 September 2021 *****COVID-19 update: the CREDIT 2021 Conference is both onsite and online but we are ready to move the conference remotely, if necessary***** *GRETA Associati* (Venice, Italy), *Cattolica Assicurazioni* (Verona, Italy), *European Datawarehouse *(Frankfurt, Germany), *European Investment Bank* (Luxembourg), *European Investment Fund* (Luxembourg), and *Intesa Sanpaolo *(Milan, Italy) are co-sponsors of a Conference to be held in Venice on September 23-24, 2021. The Conference CREDIT 2021 will bring together academics, practitioners and PhD students working in various areas of financial and credit risk with the aim to create a unique opportunity for participants to discuss research progress and policy and industry-relevant insights as well as directions for future research. CREDIT 2021 is the *twentieth *in a series of events dedicated to various aspects of credit risk and organised under the auspices of the *Department of Economics* and *VERA – Venice centre in Economic and Risk Analytics for public policies - of the Ca' Foscari University of Venice*, *ABI - Italian Banking Association*, *AIAF - Associazione Italiana per l'Analisi Finanziaria *and the *Joint Research Center, European Commission* (Ispra, Italy). /The theme of this year’s conference is the relation between financial risk on the one hand and pandemic, climate and disaster risk, on the other hand, with particular attention to the possible compounding of different sources of risk. / /The past year, 2020, has been marked by the still-ongoing COVID-19 pandemic crisis, which has shown how fragile our economic systems can be when confronted with shocks that threaten public health and the closeness of the connections between economic and financial risks and public policy. / /Climate change is now widely recognized as a new source of financial risk which is relevant both at the level of households and individual institutions and the systemic level. In particular, the many central banks and financial institutions that have joined the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) have issued recommendations on how to integrate climate considerations into risk management strategies and practices./ ///However, risks such as pandemics and climate change do not occur in isolation but can also compound, as has already been seen in several countries. The compounding of risk, which is currently poorly understood, increases the complexity of risk assessment and risk management, and it has implications for socio-economic development, as well as for public debt sustainability./ /In the EU, these aspects have major implications for efforts to increase the resilience of the economy to future shocks and to “build back better”, and requires the alignment of COVID-19 recovery policies, such as those supported by the NextGenerationEU, and the EU Green Deal and the Paris Agreement targets. / / / / / The SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE for the Conference consists of: • * Stefano Battiston *(Ca’ Foscari University of Venice & University of Zurich, Programme Chair) • * Monica Billio *(Ca’ Foscari University of Venice & GRETA) • * Francesca Campolongo *(Joint Research Center, European Commission) • *Vittoria Colizza* (INSERM, France) • * Helmut Kraemer-Eis* (European Investment Fund) • * Jan Pieter Krahnen* (Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE & Goethe University, Frankfurt) • *Irene Monasterolo *(Vienna University of Economics and Business) • *Steven Ongena* (University of Zurich, Swiss Finance Institute, KU Leuven & CEPR) • *Roberto Rigobon* (MIT Sloan School of Management) • *Stephen Schaefer* (London Business School) PROGRAMME *Thursday, September 23 2021* *08.30 **Registration*_* *_ *09.00 Welcome and Opening Remarks*_* *_*09.15 Session I: Pandemics and Macro-financial Impacts * • *Keynote talk*: /TBA - /*Vittoria Colizza*, French National Institute for Health and Medical Research, Paris • /Learning about Unprecedented Events: Agent-Based Modelling and the Stock Market Impact of COVID-19 - /*Roberto Savona*, University of Brescia (join with Davide Bazzana and Michele Colturato) • /Credit Demand and Financial Constraints in Non-Financial Recessions: Evidence from the COVID-19 Pandemic - /*Tor Jacobson*, Sveriges Riksbank, Stockholm (join with Niklas Amberg) *11.00 Coffee break*_* *_*11.30 Session II: Regulatory Requirement and Long Run Risks * • /Credit Allocation and Macroeconomic Fluctuations - /*Karsten Müller*, Princeton University (join with Emil Verner) • /Climate Change Regulatory Risks and Bank Lending - /*Eleonora Sfrappini*,IWH - Halle Institute for Economic Research (join with Isabella Mueller) • /Required Capital for Long Run Risks - /*Alain Monfort*, CREST (join with Christian Gouriéroux and Jean-Paul Renne) *13.00 Lunch** * *14.30 Session III: ESG (EIBURS Project ESG-Credit.eu)* *• Keynote talk: */Silencing the Noise: ESG Confusion and Stock Returns//- /*Roberto Rigobon*, MIT Sloan School of Management • /The Salience of ESG Ratings: Evidence from Possible Investor Confusion - /*Loriana Pelizzon*, Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE, Goethe University Frankfurt, Ca' Foscari University of Venice & CEPR (join with Aleksandra Rzeznik and Kathleen Weiss Hanley) • /Green Sentiment, Stock Returns, and Corporate Behavior - /*Stefano Ramelli*, University of Zurich (join with Marie Brìere) *16.15 Coffee break and POSTER SESSION** * *16.45 Session IV: Compounding Risks (World Bank joint project)* • /TBA - /*Nicola Ann Ranger*, World Bank & Oxford University • /Assessing the Macrofinancial Impacts of Compouding COVID-19 and Climate Risks - /*Irene Monasterolo*, Vienna University of Economics and Business & Boston University *Social dinner * *Friday, September 24, 2021* * 09.15 Session V: Finance and Climate Change * • *Keynote talk:* /Climate Financial Risk: Portfolios and Stress Tests - /*Robert F.
