On October 22-23, 2015, more than 250 regulators, policymakers, financial market participants, and academic researchers from a broad range of disciplines gathered in Ann Arbor to explore how methods from diverse fields can be used to better identify, measure, monitor, and mitigate risks in the financial system.
The conference featured keynotes by Richard Berner (Office of Financial Research), Paul Tucker (Harvard Kennedy School), Andrew Haldane (Bank of England), and Lawrence H. Summers (Harvard University).
