The workshops brings together researchers in the field of banking from Bonn and Mannheim together with a small group of outside specialists. It is funded by the Collaborative Research Centre TR 224, co-organized with the Mannheim Centre for Competition and Innovation, and provides a platform for researchers of the CRC to discuss and share their research with the broader scientific community as well as interested faculty in Bonn and Mannheim.

The workshop covers all areas of modern banking research, with a particular emphasis on the CRC's research agenda in financial stability, competition, and bank vs. non-bank lending. It features eight talks of 75 minutes, which are deliberately designed in seminar style to leave sufficient time for interaction and discussion. While lunches and dinners are by invitation only, faculty and students from Bonn and Mannheim are welcome to attend the sessions, subject to the availability of seating.

The workshop is organized and managed by Christiane Englert. Please contact her or the program chair Ernst-Ludwig von Thadden for inquiries.
