SUMMARY:Royal Economic Society Annual Public Lecture 2021: Why digital is so disruptive
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Economic Society is pleased to announce that the RES Annual Public Lecture will be held online on Thursday 6 May between 1pm – 2.30pm. \nEstablished in 2001\, the RES Annual Public Lecture provides an opportunity for school students to watch internationally-renowned economists present their research. Principally aimed at sixth form students\, the APL has become an established part of the senior school calendar. \nThis year’s event will be online and we are pleased to be co-hosting this with the University of York. \nThis year’s lecture will be chaired by RES President Dame Carol Propper and delivered by Prof. Diane Coyle CBE\, Bennett Professor of Public Policy at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. \nWhy digital is so disruptive: The Internet can be traced back to 1969\, the World Wide Web to 1990\, and iPhone to 2007 – yet it is only in the past few years that “digital disruption” has become a big theme in business. In this lecture\, Diane Coyle\, Bennett Professor of Public Policy at the University of Cambridge\, and an expert on the digital economy\, will explore why digital technology is rewiring the economy – especially now so much activity has been driven online – what economists are learning about its consequences\, and how economic policies need to change. \nBook your place here. \n  \nEconomics Applicant Talk and Q&A – Thursday 6 May 2021\, 5 – 6pm  \nFollowing the lecture\, there will be a short talk hosted by Head of Department Professor James Reade and others within the department.  They will discuss current topics such as Digital Disruption and will leave plenty of time for questions after the talk. \nThis will be a Teams Meeting. \nJoining Instructions: \n\nContact James Reade at j.j.reade@reading.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Julia Wirtz (External Seminar)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Control\, cost\, and confidence: Perseverance and procrastination in the face of failure (joint w/ Inga Deimen) \nAbstract: We study effort provision and the development of control beliefs over time: a student is uncertain whether she has control over success through her effort or whether it is determined by her innate ability\, which she also does not know. In each period\, what she can learn about her control and her ability depends on the level of effort she exerts. We characterise the student’s optimal effort policy in this two-dimensional bandit problem\, which may feature repeated switching of the effort level. Moreover\, we analyse how control\, cost\, and confidence impact perseverance and procrastination in the face of failure. Finally\, we relate our results to findings in educational psychology and discuss policies to foster perseverance and to lower procrastination. \nWatch the recording

SUMMARY:Jingqi Pan (ICMA) "On the estimation of Value-at-risk and Expected Shortfall at extreme levels" - PhD Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nThe estimation of risk at extreme levels of significance (such as alpha = 0.01%) can be crucial considering events such as those related to the recent COVID-19 crisis. We extend two popular dynamic semi-parametric models of Patton (2019) that jointly estimate Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES)\, specifically the one-factor GAS model and the Hybrid GAS/GARCH model. The main idea of our approach is to estimate VaR and ES for two levels of alpha simultaneously\, namely for an extreme level and for a more common level (such as 10%). Our simulation results indicate that the proposed models outperform the benchmarks in terms of in-sample loss values\, out-of-sample loss and backtest rejections for extreme values of alpha. In an empirical study\, we apply the proposed augmented GAS model and the augmented Hybrid GAS/GARCH model to energy futures prices (WTI\, Brent\, Gas oil and Heating oil) and compare them with a range of parametric\, nonparametric and semiparametric models. Our results show that both augmented GAS models generally outperform the benchmark models\, and the outperformance is even more prominent during the COVID-19 crisis.

SUMMARY:Anna Zabrodzka "Convergence Across EU Regions and the Role of the EU Cohesion Policy" - PhD Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nWhile there is evidence that the poorest regions in the European Union experienced the fastest economic growth\, the gap between the richest and the poorest has not diminished. Additionally\, after more than 30 years of intervention\, there is no clear and conclusive evidence that the EU Cohesion Policy has effectively contributed to economic development across the disadvantaged Europe and ensured rising equality across the continent. The inconclusive or often contradictory results of the existing studies warrant further investigation. The aim of this study is to contribute to the discussion and evaluate the macroeconomic impact of the EU Cohesion Policy on the growth of European regions and the process of economic convergence. The study attempts to answer the following question – Is there evidence that the EU structural funds supported economic growth and in turn convergence process among European subnational regions? – by using cross-section\, panel and dynamic panel analysis and the newly available dataset on annual payments provided by the European Commission. The main contribution of this paper is the expansion of the data sample by the 2007-2014 programming period and inclusion of the regions in the Central and Eastern Europe\, which joined the EU in 2004 and 2007\, in the investigation.
