Risk: The Human Factor
| Business Network Navigation |
Held at Morgan Stanley World Headquarters, 41st Floor, 1585 Broadway, New York, NY
Wednesday, October 10, 2012
Summary: The analysis of risk in the financial system often focuses, as it should, on properties and characteristics of the system that may lead to increased instability and, in extreme cases, risk of systemic failure and collapse. One such characteristic that receives less attention than it deserves is the human element in both the design and operation of financial markets and other components of the financial system. This topical meeting will examine the human factor in risk to the financial system, from the perspectives of behavioral economics, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience, and will integrate those perspectives with views from leading members of the financial community.
