Central Bank Policy Scenarios and Their Impact on Asset Classes
Monday, 4 December 2023 from 13:00 – 16:00 / Videoconference / English
 

Since the global financial crisis, central banks have greatly changed and expanded the scope of their activities. Their increasing influence and the lasting effects of their actions raise several key questions, including the following:

• How much are central banks distorting market processes?
• What are the effects of such actions on asset prices?
• What effects will reductions in central bank balance sheets have on markets?

SFI Prof. Kjell G. Nyborg, Professor of Finance at the University of Zurich, and Anastassios Frangulidis, Head of Multi Asset Switzerland and Chief Strategist—Zurich at Pictet Asset Management, will examine the interplay between central banks' policies, collateral, and liquidity—factors essential to an understanding of different tightening scenarios and their impact on financial markets. Explore the impact of global central bank liquidity on real yields and equity markets and debate how different tightening scenarios could affect values in various asset classes.
