Workshop on Behavioural Macroeconomics and Finance

The Bank of England and the LSE European Institute are pleased to announce a call for papers for the second edition of a workshop on Behavioural Macroeconomics and Finance.

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.
