Call for Papers

Conference on Post-Crisis Banking
Amsterdam, June 28 and 29, 2012

The global financial crisis has caused us to rethink many issues in banking, such as the limits of loan securitization, our ability to resolve large complex failed banks, the impact of banking and finance on the real economy, and the appropriate balance between market discipline and regulatory constraints on risk. At the same time, some banking trends have been relatively unaffected by the crisis: the consolidation of the industry, the inexorable increase in cross-border financial activity, the revolution in payments technologies, and the increasing interface between banks and financial markets.

The Journal of Money, Credit and Banking will publish a special conference issue, edited by Thorsten Beck, Jakob de Haan and Robert DeYoung. Papers presented at the conference will be refereed according to the regular JMCB processes. The usual submission fee will be waived.

Topics

We invite both empirical and theoretical papers. Topics would include, but are not limited to:

  • the impact of new regulatory and supervisory structures on bank returns, risk, and stability, including the effects of Basel III and the Dodd-Frank Act,
  • the changing structure of the financial services industry and the optimal size and scope of financial institutions,
  • the nexus of market structure, competition and stability in banking,
  • cross-border banking and its implications for efficient credit allocation, economic growth, financial stability, and international bank regulations,
  • asset securitization and other interactions among financial markets, commercial banks, and investment banks,
  • corporate governance structures in financial institutions,
  • consumer financial protection and the corporate responsibility of financial services firms,
  • innovation in banking and credit markets, and
  • the relationships among banking, macroeconomic policy, industry regulation, and the real economy.
