[cid:image002.png@01D1BC1D.730F6FC0] ECONOMETRICS RESEARCH SEMINAR INVITATION The Institute for Advanced Studies cordially invites you to the following Econometrics Research Seminar <http://www.ihs.ac.at/vienna/resources/Economics/Papers/20130226_Paper_Zimmermann.pdf> Thursday, June 9, 2016 Institute for Advanced Studies Josefstädter Straße 39, 1080 Vienna Seminar Room 101, 1st floor 9:00 am (Please note that the seminar will start at 9 am sharp!) Bernd Schwaab<http://www.berndschwaab.eu/> European Central Bank Bank business models at zero interest rates<http://www.berndschwaab.eu/papers/LSS_BBM.pdf> We propose a novel observation-driven dynamic finite mixture model for the study of banking data. The model accommodates time-varying component means and co-variance matrices, normal and t-distributed mixtures, and economic determinants of time-varying parameters. Monte Carlo experiments suggest that banks can be classified reliably into distinct components in a variety of settings. In an empirical study of 233 European banks between 2008Q1-2015Q2, we demonstrate that past crises had a differential impact on banks with different business models. In addition, changes in long-term interest rates predict features of banks' business models. Paper jointly with André Lucas and Julia Schaumburg We are looking forward to seeing you!
