Third Annual Meeting assembles CEO's and top finance professors to reflect on solutions to financial instability



Tomorrow is the annual highlight in the Institute's knowledge transfer calendar with a day-long meeting that will assemble our faculty, invited academics from around the world, and special guests UBS Group CEO Marcel Rohner and NYU Dean Tom Cooley.

There's more information about the event here.

I will be reporting on the research presentations at the event shortly, including Professor Michael Brennan's presentation on agency and asset pricing, Olivier Scaillet's presentation on his work on false discoveries in US mutual fund manager performance and Amit Goyal's first major public presentation for the Institute since he took up his Senior Chair in August.
