A Workshop on Challenges in Interconnected Financial Systems was organised by the MacCaLM project and the Sveriges Riksbank in Stockholm in September, 2016.
Financial integration, globalization, and developments in information technology have increased interconnectedness and interdependency in the financial system. Integration leads to various economic and financial challenges for policy-makers, regulators, and central banks. This calls for new research to understand the role and consequence of financial interconnectedness in formal and informal financial networks.
