SUMMARY:CBR seminar: “Japan’s corporate governance and value creation via equity spread”\, Dr. Ryohei Yanagi
DESCRIPTION:Date: Tuesday 5th December 2017\nTime: 12:00 noon\nVenue: Ground Floor Meeting Room\, 10 Trumpington Street\, Cambridge\, CB2 1QA\nSpeaker: Dr. Ryohei Yanagi \nDr. Ryohei Yanagi will give a presentation entitled “Japan’s corporate governance and value creation via equity spread”. The focus of this presentation will be the urgent need for Japanese businesses to have greater awareness of cost of capital\, which traditionally has been overlooked in favour of simple operational profitability. His view is that lack of understanding of this key principle is damaging the whole Japanese economy and hindering the revival that the Abe administration seeks. \nDr. Yanagi is the CFO of Eisai\, one of Japan’s leading pharmaceutical companies\, which has established a reputation for its innovative corporate governance. While working as Eisai’s CFO\, Dr. Yanagi holds posts at two Japanese universities as a visiting lecturer and has been campaigning for greater financial awareness among Japanese management for many years. His work as a member of various expert committees gives him a special insight into the debates underlying current efforts to refocus Japanese corporate governance practices. \nSpace is limited so to secure a place please email Rachel Wagstaff at r.wagstaff@cbr.cam.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Climate Change and International Development: what needs to be done? by Sam Bickersteth
DESCRIPTION:6 December 2017: Climate Change and International Development: what needs to be done? \n\nDecember 2015 marked a high point of multilateralism when 190 countries came together in Paris and agreed to take action on climate change. More than ever action on climate change needs to be taken as extreme climate events become the norm and tipping points ever nearer but in 2017 increased political uncertainty has made progress on the Paris Agreement harder to implement. Sam Bickersteth will provide his perspectives on a future agenda for action in the wake of the latest UN climate talks concluding on Bonn on 17th November 2017. Sam will draws on his experiences from a career in international development and leading the Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN) over the past seven years. The lecture is part of the University of Greenwich Big Picture Lecture Series and it is co-organised by GPERC and FEPS. \nLocation: room SL101\, University of Greenwich\, Stephen Lawrence Building\nTime: 17:00-19:00. \nNo booking is required by seating will be allocated in a first-come first-serve basis.

SUMMARY:'Does inequality hamper innovation and growth?' Alberto Russo & ‘A simple formalisation of Minsky's business cycle theory’ by Rob Jump
DESCRIPTION:‘Does inequality hamper innovation and growth?’ by Alberto Russo (Marche Polytechnic University) \nAbstract: The paper builds upon the Agent Based-Stock Flow Consistent model presented in Caiani et al. (2015) to analyze the relationship between income and wealth inequality and economic development. For this sake\, the original model has been amended under three main dimensions: first\, the households sector has been subdivided into workmen\, office workers\, researchers\, and executives which compete on segmented labor markets.  Conversely\, firms are now characterized by a hierarchical organization structure which determines\, according to firms’ output levels\, their demand for each type of workers. Second\, in order to account for the impact of income and wealth distribution on consumption patterns\, different households classes – also representing different income groups – have diversified average propensities to consume and save. Finally\, the model now embeds technological change in an evolutionary flavor\, affecting labor productivity evolution in the consumption sector through product innovation in the capital sector\, where firms invest in R&D and produce differentiated vintages of machineries. The model is then calibrated using realistic values for both income and wealth distribution across different income groups\, and their average propensities to consume. Results of the simulation experiments suggest that more progressive tax schemes and labor market policies aiming to increase low and middle workers’ coordination\, and to support their wage levels\, concur to foster economic development and to reduce inequality\, though the latter seem to be more effective under both respects. The model thus provides some evidence in favor of a wage-led growth regime\, where improvements of middle-low levels workers’ conditions create positive systemic effects\, which eventually trickle up also to high income-profit earners households. \n‘A simple formalisation of Minsky’s business cycle theory’ by Rob Jump (Kingston University) \nAbstract: This paper presents a simple model of Minsky’s business cycle theory. The model is based on the Phillips (1954) continuous time multiplier accelerator model\, where firms have a target debt to income ratio\, rather than a target capital to income ratio. Via a strategy switching mechanism\, fluctuations with a smaller perceived volatility lead to firms reducing their margins of safety by moving towards higher debt to income ratios. This increases volatility\, the economy is destabilised\, and firms increase their margins of safety by moving towards lower debt to income ratios. Hence the cycle repeats itself\, and “stability is destabilising”.  The simple model relies on an approximate aggregation assumption\, and we estimate the approximation bias numerically using techniques from agent based modelling. \nPlease join us for this event as part of the Economic Department Research Seminar Series\, it is free to attend. \nBooking and further information: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/events/item/2502/22-mar-2017-economics-research-seminar-with-alberto-russo-and-rob-jump/ \nContact: Antoine Godin (A.Godin@kingston.ac.uk) \nVenue: JG 3013 \nHow to find us: The seminar takes place at Penryhn Road Campus (Kingston upon Thames\, Surrey\, KT1 2EE).

SUMMARY:Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series – ‘Much of the ‘economics of property rights’ devalues property and legal rights' Geoffrey Hodgson
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series. \nDate: Wednesday 30 November 2016\nTime: 4.00pm – 6.00pm\nVenue: JG 4006 (John Galsworthy building)\, Penryhn Road Campus\, Kingston upon Thames\nPrice: free\nBooking and further information: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/events/item/2339/30-nov-2016-economics-research-seminar-with-geoffrey-hodgson-and-bill-dunn/\nContact: Antoine Godin (A.Godin@kingston.ac.uk) \n‘Much of the ‘economics of property rights’ devalues property and legal rights’ by Geoffrey Hodgson (University of Hertfordshire)\, see also: http://newpolitics.apps-1and1.net/property-when-ludwig-von-mises-got-into-bed-with-karl-marx \nAbstract: Legal theorists and other commentators have long established a distinction between property and possession. According to this usage adopted here\, possession refers to control of a resource\, but property involves legally sanctioned rights. Strikingly\, prominent foundational accounts of the ‘economics of property rights’ concentrate on possession\, downplaying the issue of legitimate legal rights (Alchian\, 1965\, 1977; Barzel\, 1994\, 1997\, 2002; von Mises\, 1981). Some authors in this genre make a distinction between ‘economic rights’ and ‘legal rights’ where the former are more to do with possession or the capacity to control. They argue that ‘economic rights’ are primary and more relevant for understanding behaviour. But it is argued here that legal factors – involving recognition of authority and perceived justice or morality – have also to be brought into the picture to understand human motivation in modern societies\, even in the economic sphere. As other authors including Hernando De Soto (2000) have pointed out\, the neglect of the legal infrastructure that buttresses property has deleterious implications\, including a failure to understand the role of property in supporting collateralized loans for innovation and economic development. \n‘Putting finance in its place: Marx\, Keynes and the interstate system ‘ by Bill Dunn (University of Sidney) \nAbstract: The paper argues that Marxist theories of money and finance remain underdeveloped and can be enriched by a critical appropriation of Keynesian insights. It advocates a theory of money and finance based on the mutual but asymmetrical interrelations of class\, capital and state institutions. It argues that accepting a Marxist epistemology and the conceptual priority of social relations of production requires rather than denies acknowledging an active financial agency. However\, this agency is socially constructed and constrained. With the appropriate conceptual level of ‘the social’ seen as essentially global\, this also involves\, amongst other things\, discarding the exogenous / endogenous distinction but seeing states and their financial power\, like that of other institutions\, as framed within rather than as external to the social relations of production. \nHow to find us: The seminar takes place at Penryhn Road Campus (Kingston upon Thames\, Surrey\, KT1 2EE). Public Transport: take train from London Waterloo to Surbiton (20 mins approx.) and walk (15 mins approx.) or buses 71\, 281\, K2\, K3 (5 mins approx.) from Surbiton Station to Kingston University.

SUMMARY:Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series - Davoud Taghawi-Nejad (University of Oxford) and Willem Spanjers (Kingston University)
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 26 October 2016\nTime: 4.00pm – 6.00pm\nVenue: JG 4006 (John Galsworthy building)\nPrice: free \n‘Web-Enabled Policy Advice – Modelling the Saudi Arabian Labour Market’ by Davoud Taghawi-Nejad (University of Oxford) \nBooking and further information: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/events/item/2338/26-oct-2016-economics-research-seminar-with-davoud-taghawinejad-and-willem-spanjers/\nContact: Antoine Godin (A.Godin@kingston.ac.uk) \nAbstract: One of Saudi Arabia’s principal problems is unemployment of Saudi nationals\, which is\, at least partially\, caused by the fact that seven million expatriates reside in the country and hold the majority of the available jobs. In order to address this problem we created a data-driven agent-based policy simulator of the Saudi labour market. The purpose of our model was to evaluate Saudi Arabia’s policy options to increase employment of Saudi nationals: taxes on expatriates\, quotas\, and minimum wages (in general and for expatriates).\nThe model consists of Saudi and expatriate workers and Firms that hire employees. Firms prefer to hire workers with the best productivity – cost profile\, but hire in accordance with the law. Their behaviour has been calibrated with time-series and firm-level data. It is possible to run the simulation with different policies\, which influence the firm’s decisions and therefore the simulation outcomes. With the agent-based model we showed the best policy answer for each sector. This model was delivered not only as part of an academic paper but also as a web-enabled policy simulator. Beyond testing and designing policy\, the model could also be used to train policymakers’ intuition and understanding of the labour market. In the second half of the talk I will address the use of policy simulators in policy advice and our experience in working with the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Labour in particular. \n‘Liquidity Provision\, Ambiguous Asset Returns and the Financial Crisis’ by Willem Spanjers (Kingston University) \nAbstract: For an economy with dysfunctional intertemporal financial markets the financial sector is modelled as a competitive banking sector offering deposit contracts. In a setting similar to Allen and Gale (1998\, [1]) properties of the optimal liquidity provision are analysed for illiquid assets with ambiguous returns. In the context of the model\, ambiguity – i.e. incalculable risk – leads to dynamically inconsistent investor behaviour. If the financial sector fails to recognize the presence of ambiguity\, unanticipated fundamental crises may occur\, which are incorrectly blamed on investors ‘loosing their nerves’ and ‘panicking’.\nThe basic mechanism of the current financial crisis resembles a banking panic in the presence of ambiguous asset returns. The combination of providing additional liquidity and supporting distressed financial institutions implements the regulatory policy suggested by the model.\nA credible commitment to such ‘bail-out policy’ does not create a moral hazard problem. Rather\, it implements the second best efficient outcome by discouraging excessive caution. Reducing ambiguity by increasing stability\, transparency and predictability – as suggested by ordo-liberalism and the ‘Freiburger Schule’ – enhances ex-ante welfare. \nHow to find us: The seminar takes place at Penryhn Road Campus (Kingston upon Thames\, Surrey\, KT1 2EE). Public Transport: take train from London Waterloo to Surbiton (20 mins approx.) and walk (15 mins approx.) or buses 71\, 281\, K2\, K3 (5 mins approx.) from Surbiton Station to Kingston University.
