21st INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
CREDIT 2022
*Long Run Risks *
Venice, Italy
22 –23 September 2022
*
*
*GRETA Associati* (Venice, Italy), *CRIF* (Bologna, Italy), *European
Datawarehouse* (Frankfurt, Germany), *European Investment Bank*
(Luxembourg), *European Investment Fund* (Luxembourg) and*Intesa
Sanpaolo* (Milan, Italy) are partners in organising a Conference to be
held in Venice on September 22-23, 2022.
The Conference CREDIT 2022 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 2022 is the *twenty-first* 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 *AIFIRM - Associazione Italiana
Financial Industry Risk Managers*.
The theme of this year’s conference brings the attention on long run
risks, whose notion is multifaceted, but whose impact is becoming more
and more evident and is receiving attention both at political and
regulatory level.
The organizers encourage submissions on any topic within the overall
theme of the conference and in the following areas in particular:
• Long Run Risks: Modelling; Backtesting and Validation; ESG Risks
for significantly wider time horizons with respect to the most
traditional financial risks (Market, Credit, etc.)
• Long Run Investments and Portfolios: Illiquidity premium in the
short vs the long run; Investment risk in real assets: Focus on Real
Estate risk; Investment policies for Insurance and Pension Funds;
Private vs Public Markets in long run portfolios, the role of Private
Equity and the contribution to Venture Capital; Fintech for Sustainability
• Long Run Business Strategies: Sustainability Plans; Restructuring
of Production Processes; Mitigation of Climate Physical and Transition Risks
• Long Run Climate Policies: New regulatory actions to reduce
emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases; New financial
regulations to promote the Low-Carbon Transition at public and private level
• Socio-economic Stability in the Long Run: Inflation dynamics;
Impact of transition costs from an economic and social point of view;
New measures to manage migrations due to Climate Change
• Long Run Market Information and Disclosure: International Financial
Reporting Standards; International Accounting Standards; Long Run
Financial Regulation (Banks, Insurers, Funds)
The final program will include both submitted and invited papers.
Acceptances received so far from invited speakers include *Robert Engle*
(Stern Business School, New York University), *Marcin Kacperczyk
*(Imperial College London) and*Lucrezia Reichlin* (London Business
School). The Conference will also feature panel discussions on
researchers', practitioners' and policy makers’ views of the major
issues at stake

SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO
<https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…>
Mercoledi 18 Maggio 2022, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto,
in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario:
------------------------------------------------
Speaker: *Larry Goldstein* (University of Southern California)
Title: *Relaxing Gaussian assumptions in high dimensional statistical
procedures*
Abstract: The assumption that high dimensional data is Gaussian is
pervasive in many statistical procedures, due not only to its tail decay,
but also to the level of analytic tractability this special distribution
provides. We explore the relaxation of the Gaussian assumption in Single
Index models and Shrinkage estimation using two tools that originate in
Stein’s method: Stein kernels, and the zero bias transform. Taking this
approach leads to measures of discrepancy from the Gaussian that arise
naturally from the nature of the procedures considered, and result in
performance bounds in contexts not restricted to the Gaussian. The
resulting bounds are tight in the sense that they include an additional
term that reflects the cost of deviation from the Gaussian, and vanish for
the Gaussian, thus recovering this particular special case.
Joint work with: Xiaohan Wei, Max Fathi, Gesine Reinert, and Adrien Samaurd

Mercoledì 18 Maggio, ore 16, Sala di Consiglio, Sapienza Università di Roma
SPEAKER: Michele Aleandri (Sapienza Università di Roma)
TITOLO: Opinion dynamics: conformist and nonconformist interacting agents
ABSTRACT: We study two models of binary decisions in a connected network of
interacting agents. Individual decisions are determined by social
influence, coming from direct interactions with neighbours, and a group
level pressure that accounts for social environment. We study the
convergence of the mean field variables associated to the processes as the
number of agents goes to infinity and we show that propagation of chaos
occurs. In the first model, [2], we have a family of conformist or
nonconformist agents that interact with each other. When the number of
agents is large but fixed, we study the amount of time spent by the mean
field variables associated with the process around the stable points of the
macroscopic dynamics. In a nonconformist environment, there is a persistent
disordered phase where no majority is formed: We show how in this case the
introduction of a delay mechanism in the agent’s detection of the global
average choice may drastically change this scenario, giving rise to a
coordinated self sustained periodic behavior. In the second model, [1], the
population is divided into two social groups, each one characterized by its
attitude with respect to the other. Agents of the same group interact with
each other, while the other group exerts on them a social influence, that
may also be null or even negative. We focus in particular on models with
Lotka-Volterra type interactions, i.e., models with conformist vs.
nonconformist groups. For these models, although the microscopic system is
driven a.s. to consensus within each group, a periodic behaviour arises in
the macroscopic scale. In order to describe fluctuations between the
limiting periodic orbits, we identify a slow variable in the microscopic
system and, through an averaging principle, we find a diffusion which
describes the macroscopic dynamics of such variable on a larger time scale.

——————————————————
Dear colleagues,
we would like to draw your attention to the fourth workshop for
"Junior female researchers in probability”, 5-7 October 2022.
The aim of this workshop is to promote young female researchers by giving them an opportunity to present their own work, build a network and hear distinguished mathematicians who can inspire them to pursue a fulfilling career in probability.
Keynote speakers:
Sylvie Méléard (École Polytechnique)
Silke Rolles (TU Munich)
Invited speakers:
Alessandra Bianchi (Padova)
Lisa Hartung (Mainz)
Alexandra Neamtu (Konstanz)
Kim Weston (Rutgers)
The workshop is planned as an in-person event in Berlin.
We warmly invite those who identify as female to submit abstracts for contributed talks, and apply for financial support for traveling to Berlin in case we can have a hybrid event. However, please be aware that being unable to travel should not restrain from submitting an abstract. There are special travel grants for female master students interested in gaining some insight into research and getting in touch with researchers. Of course everybody is very welcome to participate, but presentations and financial support are reserved for female participants.
Deadline for submission of abstracts and funding requests: June 30, 2021.
Please pass this information on to interested master students, PhD students and postdocs as well as your colleagues!

Title: Mapping Space Signatures
Abstract: The path signature is a foundational tool in the theory of rough
paths. In this talk, we introduce the mapping space signature, a
generalization of the path signature to maps from higher dimensional
cubical domains, which is motivated by the topological perspective of K. T.
Chen. We show that the mapping space signature shares many of the analytic
and algebraic properties of the path signature; in particular it is
universal and characteristic with respect to a certain equivalence relation
on cubical maps. This is joint work with Chad Giusti, Vidit Nanda, and
Harald Oberhauser.
