DATE:
Tue, July 2, 2013 - 4:30 pm
SPEAKER:
Prof. Dr. Douglas W. Diamond / Booth School of Business, University of Chicago
TOPIC:
"SHORT-TERM DEBT AND FINANCIAL REGULATION"
ABSTRACT:
Private financial crises are everywhere and always due to problems of short-term debt. Financial regulation can address many aspects of the financial sector, but it should focus on avoiding the excessive use of short-term debt without invoking excessive capital requirements. This is the way to have an impact on the risk of financial crises without destroying access to funding. Regulations based on this framework are proposed and evaluated.
ABOUT DOUGLAS W. DIAMOND:
Douglas W. Diamond specializes in the study of financial intermediaries, financial crises, and liquidity. His work has appeared in such notable journals as the Journal of Financial Economics, the Journal of Finance, the Review of Economic Studies, the American Economic Review, and the Journal of Political Economy. His research has been funded with grants from the National Science Foundation and the Garn Institute of Finance.
He has taught at Yale and was a visiting professor at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology as well as the University of Bonn. He is a research associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research and worked for the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System while a graduate student.
In addition to his roles as a researcher and professor, Diamond is co-director of the Fama-Miller Center for Research in Finance at Chicago Booth, a visiting scholar at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, a position he has held since 1990, and is on the Board of Directors of the Center for Research in Security Prices. Diamond is a former president of the American Finance Association and the Western Finance Association. He is also a fellow of the Econometric Society, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the American Finance Association. He joined Chicago Booth in 1979.

Recent years have shown a widespread and largely unexpected increase in sovereign credit risk. Its consequences still affect financial markets, the investment industry and economies around the world. The associated challenge to understand its origins and to investigate its consequences is still a major subject of political, economic and scientific debate, which may well last for another couple of years.
The main purpose of the WU Gutmann Symposium 2013 is to discuss various dimensions of sovereign credit risk and its implications for asset management. The papers of the symposium will focus on the following range of topics: sovereign credit risk, risk premia and stock market response; the role of governments and political uncertainty; banks' behavior and their systemic risk; sovereign bond and CDS markets.
We are proud to welcome highly renowned experts from all over the world who will present their state-of-the-art research in the field, and cordially invite you to attend the WU Gutmann Center Symposium 2013.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
Der Studiengang "Quantitative Asset and Risk Management" (kurz: ARIMA) startet heuer im Herbst zum vierten Mal und die ersten AbsolventInnen haben hervorragende
Chancen auf dem momentan doch recht schwierigen Arbeitsmarkt.
**Für das kommende Studienjahr 2012/13 werden noch Bewerbungen bis zum 15. Juni 2012 entgegen genommen.**
Die Entwicklung dieses Programmes erfolgte gemeinsam mit internationalen Partneruniversitaeten in Prag, Istanbul und Katowice und wurde von der EU als Joint Degree Curriculum Development Programm gefoerdert. Im 3. Semester findet daher ein verpflichtender Auslandsaufenthalt (zweimal 3 Wochen geblockt) bei einer der Partneruniversitaeten statt. Daraus ergibt sich auch, dass die Unterrichtssprache durchgaengig Englisch ist. Im Bereich Internationalisierung konnte außerdem mit der Universität Bologna, die einen Master in Quantitative Finance anbietet, ein Double Degree Abkommen abgeschlossen werden
Das Ziel von ARIMA besteht darin, den Studierenden ein umfassendes Verstaendnis ueber die Zusammenhaenge zwischen Asset- und Risikomanagement im Finanzbereich zu vermitteln.
Die AbsolventInnen erhalten eine fundierte Ausbildung im Risikomanagement (Quantifizierung von Risiken, Risikoaggregation; integrierte Steuerung von Banken und Versicherungen etc.) und Asset Management (Assetklassen, Portfolioselektion, Asset Liability Management, etc.). Hinzu treten methodisch-analytische Kenntnisse und Fertigkeiten, vor allem in Finanzmathematik und Statistik.
Voraussetzungen zur Teilnahme am Masterprogramm:
Im Anschluss an ein wirtschafts-, sozial-, natur- oder rechtswissenschaftliches oder technisches Studium einer Universitaet oder Fachhochschule kann der vier Semester umfassende und berufsbegleitend organisierte Masterstudiengang ARIMA absolviert werden.
Weiters muessen besuchte Lehrveranstaltungen im Bereich Mathematik/Statisitk und Wirtschaftswissenschaften nachgewiesen werden.
Aufnahmeverfahren:
Formales Kriterium fuer die Teilnahme am Aufnahmeverfahren ist eine schriftliche Bewerbung bis spaetestens 15. Juni 2012.
Das Aufnahmeverfahren selbst besteht aus einem strukturierten Interview (kurze Praesentation zu einem aktuellen Finanzthema auf Englisch und zusaetzliche Fragen zur Motivation fuer die Bewerbung) und einem Multiple-Choice Test. Die Literatur fuer den MC-Test kann von der homepage der FH des bfi Wien heruntergeladen werden. Der MC-Test findet am 26. Juni 2012 statt. Die strukturierten Interviews werden von Mitte Mai bis Ende Juni gefuehrt.
Lektorenpool aus dem wissenschaftlichen und berufsrelvanten Bereich:
Um einerseits theoretische Grundlagen zu vermitteln und andererseits die Anwendung der Theorie in der Praxis aufzuzeigen, konnten namhafte Lektoren aus diesen Bereichen fuer eine Vortragstaetigkeit in ARIMA gewonnen werden. Beispielshaft seien das IHS, die TU Wien, Oesterreichische Grossbanken und die OeNB genannt.
Wir hoffen, Ihr Interesse fuer den neuen Studiengang geweckt zu haben und wuerden uns sehr freuen, wenn Sie dieses Schreiben an weiterbildungsinteressierte Personen in Ihrem Unternehmen weiterleiten wuerden. Fuer weitere Fragen stehen wir Ihnen gerne zur Verfuegung (silvia.helmreich(a)fh-vie.ac.at) oder besuchen Sie unsere homepage:
