Einladung VOSTA Freitagsseminar Halaburda 17.11
by Event-Management 24 Oct '17

24 Oct '17

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, Wir laden Sie herzlich zum VOSTA Freitagsseminar von Frau Hanna Halaburda von der Bank of Canada mit dem Titel "Central Bank Digital Currencies: A Framework for Assessing Why and How" ein. Termin: Freitag, 17. November 2017, 11:00 Uhr Ort: Oesterreichische Nationalbank Veranstaltungssaal, Erdgeschoss Otto-Wagner-Platz 3 1090 Wien Abstract: Digital currencies have attracted strong interest in recent years and have the potential to become widely adopted for use in making payments. Public authorities and central banks around the world are closely monitoring developments in digital currencies and studying their implications for the economy, the financial system and central banks. One key policy question for public authorities such as a central bank is whether or not to issue its own digital currency that can be used by the general public to make payments. There are several public policy arguments for a central-bank-issued digital currency. This paper proposes a framework for assessing why a central bank should consider issuing a digital currency and how to implement it to improve the efficiency of the retail payment system.

Reminder: WU Economic Research Seminar 25.10.17, Franz R. Hahn (Austrian Institute of Economic Research - WIFO)
by Oberhofer, Harald 22 Oct '17

22 Oct '17

Dear colleagues, The Department of Economics cordially invites you to the Economic Research Seminar (Department Seminar) on Wednesday, October 25, with Franz R. Hahn (Austrian Institute of Economic Research - WIFO) on "Credit Limits: A Potential Outcome Analysis of Bank-Firm Relationship" Abstract: At the center of this study has been the identification of the empirically and, thus, policy relevant causes of financial contraction. To be specific, our focus has been on identifying the "pure" credit-limiting supply effect in order to assess its importance as it is claimed in the theoretical literature. In order to resolve the underlying identification problem in empirical credit market analysis we apply advanced methods of the matching approach. To the best of our knowledge our work is the first that uses matching techniques to resolve the identification problem in conjunction with credit supply and credit demand. Most importantly, advanced matching techniques allow us to identify the causal effect of credit constraints on non-financial businesses. By comparing the effects of credit constraints on businesses that were exposed to credit limits to those that were not exposed to credit limits but were otherwise identical to the credit-constrained firms prior to the treatment, the selection problem can be solved and the average treatment on the treated is computed as the difference in outcome between those two groups. The empirical analysis is based on a unique, interlinked micro-dataset drawn from banks and business firms of the Austrian economy that covers the pre-crisis period from 2004 onwards, the crisis period 2008 and 2009 and the post- crisis period from 2010 onwards (until 2013). By applying propensity score analysis we are able to show that bank credit limits are not only imposed due to unfavorable demand-side factors (i. e., bad debtors, poor information, weak growth environment, high exposure to external shocks) but also due to supply-side weaknesses such as poor bank capitalization. The overall-picture of our findings even fuels speculation that the average Austrian non-financial company might have been running a much higher credit-limitation risk during the financial crisis and thereafter as many, experts and authorities alike, initially assumed and, what's more, still refuse to believe. Place and time: Wednesday, October 25, 4.30 - 6.00 p.m., Campus WU, Welthandelsplatz 1, 1020 Vienna, building D4, 2nd floor, Department meeting room 2.008.
