About the workshop
Date: 13 November 2026
Location: Bank of England
The workshop aims to bring together research at the intersection of macroeconomics, finance, and behavioural economics, with a focus on how mechanisms such as bounded rationality, belief formation, cognitive biases, and heterogeneous expectations shape macro financial dynamics, especially in shock prone environments. We welcome contributions that examine how behavioural frictions influence inflation dynamics, price and wage setting, asset prices, investment, portfolio allocation, financial constraints, risk taking, contagion, financial stability, and policy transmission, as well as work offering new empirical evidence, modelling approaches, or solution methods for incorporating behavioural features into macro financial analysis, scenario design, and policy evaluation.
