Preference Discovery and Strategic Bundling https://www.dse.univr.it/?ent=seminario&rss=0&lang=en&id=6356 Relatore: Paolo Pin; Provenienza: Università di Siena; Data inizio: 2025-04-10; Ora inizio: 12.00; Note orario: Aula Vaona; Referente interno: Maria Vittoria Levati; Riassunto: Modelling the interaction between a provider of composite bundles and a consumer who learns about her preferences or product quality through consumption, we show how the provider can strategically manipulate bundles to bias the consumer#39;s learning. This can favor or disfavor certain goods, delay learning, and boost profits by leveraging temporary consumer biases. Using concepts from OLS estimation, decision theory, and network theory, we provide insights into obfuscation strategies and the role of the first and last eigenvectors in policy design under uncertainty. A toy empirical example from the movie industry illustrates the model#39;s key mechanisms. .

Students’ educational aspirations and choices in the aftermath of the Great Recession https://www.dse.univr.it/?ent=seminario&rss=0&lang=en&id=6486 Relatore: Marco Tonello; Provenienza: Banca d'Italia; Data inizio: 2025-05-13; Ora inizio: 12.00; Referente interno: Alessia Campolmi; Riassunto: We study the impact of economic downturns on human capital accumulation, focusing on the effects of peer exposure to higher unemployment. We investigate whether studentsrsquo; educational aspirations, as well as their subsequent educational decisions and effort, are influenced by the unemployment status of their peersrsquo; parents. Using data for 10th-grade students in Italy, we combine individual-level aspirations about the intentions to complete high school and to enrol at university with administrative register data on high school completion and university enrolment. Our identification strategy relies on comparing adjacent cohorts of students within the same school, exploiting the quasi-random variation in the share of peers with at least one unemployed parent. We find that higher exposure to peers with unemployed parents remarkably depresses studentsrsquo; aspirations to complete both secondary and tertiary education. Importantly, it also leads to lower high school diploma grades and a reduced likelihood of university enrolment.

Thu, 15 May 2025 12:00:00 +0200 https://www.dse.univr.it/?ent=seminario&rss=0&lang=en&id=6358 The concept of climate risk and its impact https://www.dse.univr.it/?ent=seminario&rss=0&lang=en&id=6484 Relatore: Ewa Dziwok; Provenienza: University of Katowice; Data inizio: 2025-05-29; Ora inizio: 12.00; Referente interno: Cecilia Mancini; Riassunto: Climate risk, which includes both physical risks from environmental changes and transition risks linked to the shift towards a low-carbon economy, has become a critical component in discussions of systemic risk. The effects of climate change were further amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic, accelerating the inclusion of climate risk in systemic risk measurement processes (Jung et al., 2023). To address these challenges, we propose viewing systemic risk as a multidimensional concept that requires a comprehensive and nuanced approach to measurement. By including a broader spectrum of external risks that can contribute to systemic events ndash; such as market (equity) shocks, climate-related risks and interbank liquidity dynamics, this approach provides an alternative tool for monitoring and managing complex financial stability risks at the systemic level. Importantly, we combine transition risk with physical risk, in the assessment of systemic climate risk. The inclusion of climate risk is particularly important as it represents an often underestimated and growing dimension of systemic risk with significant economic consequences. In the research, we apply econometric methods, including the simulation of the beta risk factor for several distinct exogenous shocks and its integration into a granular fragility measure of systemic risk. Based on these simulations, we construct a composite multidimensional measure of systemic risk. Subsequently, we apply our methodology to empirical data, using a sample of assets. This research contributes to the existing literature by offering a universal framework for assessing systemic risk that aggregates multiple exogenous factors, particularly emphasizing the often-overlooked role of climate risk. Our results highlight the need for sophisticated, multidimensional analyses of systemic risk to enhance the resilience of financial systems against diverse shocks.
