Economics serving society

Macroeconomic Risk Chair | Newsletter #14

The Macroeconomic Risk Chair has been launched in June 2018. Held by the Paris School of Economics, it is financed by the SCOR Foundation for Science.

Under the scientific leadership of Gilles Saint-Paul (PSE, École normale supérieure - PSL) and the executive leadership of Axelle Ferriere (PSE, CNRS), the chair aims to strengthen high level research and the dissemination of knowledge to generate a better understanding of contemporary macroeconomics.

To contribute to this goal, a newsletter is released three times a year, summarizing the research performed and promoted within the chair.
