Sciences Po / Banque de France Research Seminar

Pediments on Banque de France and Sciences Po buildings

As part of Sciences Po's partnership with the Banque de France, we have created a special monthly seminar series: Banks and the Financial System: What Regulation?

The Sciences Po / Banque de France Research Seminars discuss issues on banking, financial systems and financial regulation. The objective is to confront the approaches and ideas of academics and practitioners.

Wednesdays, 5 to 7 pm. 

In order to attend, you should contact by email Stéphanie BERRIBI.

The Sciences Po / Banque de France Research Seminar series is organised by Vivien Levy-Garboua (BNP Paribas), Denis Beau (Sous-Gouverneur, Banque de France), Stéphane GUIBAUD (Professor at Sciences Po).
