[cid:image002.png@01CEBF6B.D0B28790] VIENNA JOINT ECONOMICS SEMINAR INVITATION The University of Vienna and the Department of Economics and Finance at the Institute for Advanced Studies cordially invite you to the following Vienna Joint Economics Seminar <http://www.ihs.ac.at/vienna/resources/Economics/Papers/20130226_Paper_Zimme…> Thursday, October 1, 2015 Attention - New Address Institute for Advanced Studies Josefstädter Strasse 39, 1080 Vienna Lecture Room E02, ground floor 4:00 pm Ulrich Berger<http://wwwap.wu.ac.at/usr/vw5/uberger/> and Fabien Postel-Vinay<https://hec.unil.ch/people/bklaus> WU Wien UCL Cognitive Hierarchies in the Minimizer Game<https://www.ihs.ac.at/fileadmin/public/ecofin_teaching/Seminars/20151001_Pa…> (Ulrich Berger) Abstract: Experimental tests of choice predictions in one-shot games show only little support for Nash equilibrium (NE). Poisson Cognitive Hierarchy (PCH) and level-k (LK) are behavioral models of the thinking-steps variety where subjects differ in the number of levels of iterated reasoning they perform. Camerer et al. (2004) claim that substituting the Poisson parameter = 1:5 yields a parameter-free PCH model (pfPCH) which predicts experimental data considerably better than NE. We design a new multi-person game, the Minimizer Game, as a testbed to compare initial choice predictions of NE, pfPCH and LK. Data obtained from two large-scale online experiments strongly reject NE and LK, but are well in line with the point prediction of pfPCH. Paper jointly with Hannelore De Silva and Gerlinde Fellner-Röhling Multidimensional Skills, Sorting, and Human Capital Accumulation<https://economics.sas.upenn.edu/sites/economics.sas.upenn.edu/files/u21/mul…> (Fabien Postel-Vinay) Abstract: We construct a structural model of on-the-job search in which workers differ in skills along several dimensions (cognitive, manual, interpersonal...) and sort themselves into jobs with heterogeneous skill requirements along those same dimensions. We further allow for skills to be accumulated when used, and eroded away when not used. We estimate the model using occupation-level measures of skill requirements based on O*NET data, combined with a worker-level panel from the NLSY79. We use the estimated model to shed light on the origins and costs of mismatch along the cognitive, manual, and interpersonal skill dimensions. Our results clearly suggest that those three types of skills are very different productive attributes. Paper jointly with Jeremy Lise We are looking forward to seeing you!

Conference Invitation: SUERF/LI/Univerity of Zurich - "Cash on Trial" - 5 November 2015, Zurich
by Popovic, Dragana 24 Sep '15

24 Sep '15

Dear Colleagues, SUERF - The European Money and Finance Forum together with Liberales Institut and University of Zurich cordially invite you to the Conference "Cash on Trial", on Thursday, 5 November 2015 in Zurich, Switzerland Conference Motivation: Over millennia, mankind has used hard cash in various forms ranging from shells to gold coins and paper. More recently, cash has become unpopular in political circles, as it effectively restricts states' power to tax (explicitly or via negative interest rates) or to survey and potentially control their citizens. Several states have enacted restrictions to the use of hard cash. Above all, a strong new competitor to cash has arisen in the form of various electronic means of payment. Are we heading towards a society in which "coined freedom" (Dostojewski) will cease to exist? Confirmed Speakers: Aleksander Berentsen, David Llewellyn, Friedrich Schneider, Harry Leinonen, Jean-Charles Rochet , Malte Krüger, Nicole Jonker, Nikos Passas, Peter Sloterdijk, Paolo Tasca. For detailed information and conference registration, please visit our homepage at www.suerf.org/zurich 2015<http://www.suerf.org/zurich%202015> Conference presentations, as far as available, will be posted on our homepage after the conference.

Oktober 2015, 13:15 Uhr WIFO, Kleiner Sitzungssaal Mario LARCH (Universität Bayreuth) "On the Effects of TTIP on Trade and Growth" Kommentar: Elisabeth Christen (WIFO) Abstract: "We quantify the effects of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) between the United States (USA) and the European Union (EU) on trade and capital accumulation in the world. We allow for and estimate heterogeneous trade cost elasticities across EU members, which have strong implications for our general equilibrium analysis. Our results suggest that TTIP will have significant static and dynamic impact on trade and capital accumulation in the world. The biggest winners are large members, but small members benefit as well. The effects on outside countries are mostly negative, however, the dynamic effects on trade in non-member countries are non-monotonic. In some cases, the dynamic TTIP effects are strong enough to cause a reversal from trade-diversion to trade creation in non-member countries."
