    Swansea University Lecturer to present at OECD Symposium as part of 50th anniversary celebrations

    Dr Jing Chen, lecturer in Finance and Accounting from Swansea University’s School of Business and Economics, is presenting at the OECD Symposium “Crisis management and the use of government guarantees” in Paris on 3-4 October 2011.


    Dr Jing Chen 

    The event will bring together speakers from a variety of backgrounds including central bankers, regulators, policymakers including delegates to the OECD’s committees on Financial markets (CMF), and academics.

    The focus of the symposium will be on bank failure resolution and on crisis management, in particular, the use of guarantees and the spill-overs between the credit qualities of sovereigns and banking systems. The Symposium is part of the OECD's 50th anniversary celebrations and takes place back-to-back with the meeting of the OECD's Committee on Financial Markets. It is part of the OECD's ongoing work on financial sector guarantees.

    Dr Chen will present at the roundtable session on “Liquidity Interactions in Credit Markets: An Analysis of the Eurozone Soverign Debt Crisis”. Along with co-authors Dr Giovanni Calice (University of Southampton) and Julian Williams (University of Aberdeen) she will present findings from a paper published in July entitled “Liquidity Spillpowers on Sovereign Bond and CDS Markets.”
