The Bank Policy Institute and Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs invite the submission of papers for our 9th annual conference on Bank Regulation and Supervision. An in-person conference is planned. The purpose of the conference is to bring together academics, market participants, and policymakers to discuss the latest research on the design and impacts of regulation.

• Impact of liquidity regulation on liquidity risk management and the structure of bank balance sheets

• Interaction of liquidity regulation with contingent liquidity provision, including central bank liquidity

• Regulation, technological change and other factors driving credit formation by banks and nonbanks

We welcome theoretical, empirical and policy-oriented papers.
