Published: July 11, 2023
The Office of Financial Research hosted its annual PhD Symposium on October 27, 2023 in Washington, D.C.
The PhD Symposium is an opportunity for upper-year PhD candidates to receive constructive feedback on their work from economists and other subject matter experts at the OFR and certain Financial Stability Oversight Council member agencies. We only considered papers on topics that are related to financial stability and that are authored by students currently enrolled in a U.S. PhD program.
