The program covered a broad range of topics in banking and finance, including oil options during the US-Iran conflict, mutual fund manager allocation, the effects of anti-money laundering regulation and Fed decisions on European banks, monetary policy transmission through intermediaries, currency factors, corporate bond risk premia, and liquidity differences between the Austrian and German stock markets. Several papers addressed market microstructure and decentralized finance, among them FiRe member Isabel Walcher's work on allocative efficiency and mispricing in AMM and CDA markets and FiRe member Martin Rauch's analysis of just-in-time liquidity provision in Uniswap v3.
