The University of Oxford, Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR), the Bank of Japan, the Bank of England, and Waseda University jointly invite applications for papers to be presented at the “Conference on Financial and Economic Developments: New Challenges and Policy Solutions.”
The workshop will be held in-person on Tuesday 12 and Wednesday 13 March 2024, at Waseda University in Tokyo.
This workshop will feature participants including academics and policymakers who will present their ongoing projects and recent research papers related to firm dynamics, bank lending, price dynamics, monetary policy, and macroeconomic conditions with a focus on firm productivity and credit market frictions.
We invite submissions for this conference from interested researchers on:
- Firm dynamics and financial frictions
- Price dynamics and inflation
- Monetary and fiscal policy
- Bank lending and credit conditions
The organizers would particularly like to encourage academic researchers to focus more on policy questions.

Professor Haruhiko Kuroda (GRIPS and Columbia University, and former governor of the Bank of Japan) will be the keynote speaker of the conference.
