The late 20th and early 21st century experienced increasing international
integration of trade and global finance, with growing interlinkages between
the two.  These relationships have been under pressure since the global
financial crisis, which led to changes in the structure of global
banking.  Further stress has arisen from trade policy frictions and the
uncertainty associated with threats of increased unilateralism, war,
sanctions and retaliation. These developments have turned attention to the
intricacies and fragilities of global supply chains and the important role
of credit provision from financial institutions in them.  Studying the
interdependencies between trade and finance can provide insights into where
trade or financial shocks are likely to have contained effects, and where
they are likely to result in spillovers or to be amplified in their
impact.  Research can also provide a framework for understanding several
emerging trends, such as the increase in digital commerce,
re-nationalization, and tightening production linkages.
To address these and related issues, the National Bureau of Economic
Research (NBER), with support from the Central Bank of Chile (Banco Central
de Chile, BCC), will host a research conference in Santiago, Chile, on
March 1-2,2023.  The conference will be organized by Sofia Bauducco (BCC)
and NBER researchers Pol Antras (Harvard), Linda Goldberg (Federal Reserve
Bank of New York), Sebnem Kalemli-Ozcan (University of Maryland), and
Martin Uribe (Columbia University).  Papers that are selected for
presentation will be considered for inclusion in a special issue of the
Journal of International Economics with guest editor Shang-Jin Wei
(Columbia University).
The conference will emphasize research on how shocks to international trade
conditions, including policy uncertainty, affect credit provision and
international financial linkages, as well as the reciprocal relationships
between credit shocks and trade.  Potential topics for the research
conference include, but are not limited to:
 	Consequences of international trade disruptions for cross-border credit
provision and financial fragmentation.
 	Transmission of global supply chain shocks and international financial
frictions into inflation and real activity, with impacts on monetary and
fiscal policy.
 	The role of international financial integration in supporting
international trade, and the consequences of fragmentation in financial
markets in disrupting trade.
 	Interdependencies between global supply chains and finance.
 	The impact of trade and trade-related finance on prices and economic
activity, particularly when analyzed from the vantage point of highly
disaggregate data from credit registries, surveys of prices, or corporate
accounts.
The organizers welcome the submission of both empirical and theoretical
papers on these issues.  Papers may analyze current, past, or prospective
policies, but in keeping with NBER restrictions, they may not make policy
recommendations.  Submissions from scholars who are early in their
careers, with and without NBER affiliations, and/or who are members of
groups that have been historically under-represented in economics are
welcome.
