Financial Intermediation, Regulation and Economic Policy: JMCB 50th Anniversary Conference

This research and policy conference is part of the 50th anniversary celebration of the Journal of Money, Credit and Banking. The conference, hosted by the European Central Bank and sponsored by The Ohio State University, will focus on the challenges facing financial intermediaries, their supervisors and regulators, as well as central banks and other economic policy-makers in the coming years. The research proceedings of this conference will be published in a 50th anniversary special issue of the JMCB. (A parallel JMCB 50th anniversary conference, focusing on monetary and macroeconomic issues, is being hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in May 2019.)

Papers will be reviewed according to the usual quality standards of the JMCB. Papers accepted for the conference will be considered for publication in the JMCB special issue celebrating the journal’s anniversary, co-edited by Robert DeYoung, Philipp Hartmann, and Luc Laeven. Upon acceptance of their papers on the conference program, authors will be asked to formally submit them for publication to the JMCB. The usual submission fee will be waived.
