Тема: Systemic Values-at-Risk: Computation and Convergence.
 
Аннотация:
We investigate the convergence properties of sample-average approximations (SAA) for set-valued systemic risk measures. We assume that the systemic risk measure is defined using a general aggregation function with some continuity properties and value-at-risk applied as a monetary risk measure. Our focus is on the theoretical convergence of its SAA under Wijsman and Hausdorff topologies for closed sets. After building the general theory, we provide an in-depth study of an important special case where the aggregation function is defined based on the Eisenberg-Noe network model. In this case, we provide mixed-integer programming formulations for calculating the SAA sets via their weighted-sum and norm-minimizing scalarizations. To demonstrate the applicability of our findings, we conduct a comprehensive sensitivity analysis by generating a financial network based on the preferential attachment model and modeling the economic disruptions via a Pareto distribution.

📅 Upcoming Seminar
Date & Time: 3 June, 12:00 MSK
Title: Modern causal effect estimation: theoretical foundations of double machine learning, its contrast with linear regression, and applications to quantile modeling
Abstract:
This presentation examines a modern approach to estimating causal effects in observational data, covering the process from parameter identification through to statistical inference. We compare traditional model-selection–based methodologies with newer techniques that employ robust estimators in semiparametric statistical models. The theoretical foundations of the double machine learning method are discussed, along with several recent methodological developments and estimation strategies in quantile regression models.
Speaker: Alexander M. Chentsov (MIPT; Centre for Big Data in Economics, HSE University)

👤 Speaker: Kien C. Tran (University of Lethbridge, Canada)

Over the coming months, the program will feature distinguished scholars from Syracuse University, the University of Liverpool, the University of Birmingham, Brunel University of London, the University of Macau, ITAM (Mexico), and other leading institutions. Topics will range from clustered data inference and panel econometrics to systemic risk measures and change-point detection in time series.

🖥 Format: Online (via Zoom)
💡 Participation: Free, registration required

Join us on October 13 at 12:00 (Moscow time, online via Zoom) for a research seminar by

🎓 Bogdan Potanin (HSE, Moscow)
Talk: “Double machine learning for causal inference in multivariate sample selection model”

The seminar will present novel Plug-in and Double Machine Learning (DML) estimators for causal effects (ATE, ATET, LATE). The proposed DML estimators are doubly robust and based on efficient influence functions. Simulation evidence shows that ignoring multivariate sample selection leads to significant bias, while the new methods effectively correct it.

🎓 Abderrahim Taamouti (University of Liverpool)

Talk: “Systemic Growth-at-Risk and Growth Spread Measures”

The seminar will present two novel sets of forward-looking macroeconomic metrics: Systemic Growth-at-Risk (GaR) Measures, which capture the cross-country transmission of growth risks, and Growth Spread Measures, which assess the net growth benefits of regional integration. Using advanced multivariate GARCH models, the study applies this framework to the European Union, revealing how integration simultaneously fosters shared growth potential and heightens exposure to systemic shocks.

Join us on October 27, 2025 at 15:00 (Moscow time, online via Zoom) for a research seminar by

🎓 Stepan Novikov (Bank of Russia)

Talk: “Productivity and Efficiency Trends of Russian Firms in 2017–2023”

This seminar will present a stochastic frontier analysis of Russia's total factor productivity (TFP) from 2017-2023. The study decomposes TFP growth into shifts of the technological frontier and changes in firms' efficiency. The author assesses the distinct impacts of the pandemic and the 2022 crisis across economic sectors, revealing that efficiency changes were a primary driver of TFP dynamics. The results highlight a partial recovery in 2023, which largely bypassed exporters, wholesale trade, and the information and communication sectors.

Join us on November 10, 2025 at 12:00 (Moscow time, online via Zoom) for a research seminar by

🎓 Marco Barassi (University of Birmingham)

Talk: "Threshold Regression in Heterogeneous Panel Data with Interactive Fixed Effects"

This seminar will present research that introduces unit-specific heterogeneity into panel data threshold regression. The study develops a comprehensive asymptotic theory for models with heterogeneous thresholds, heterogeneous slope coefficients, and interactive fixed effects. The estimation methodology employs the Common Correlated Effects approach, maintaining computational simplicity while handling heterogeneous coefficients. The research also proposes tests for linearity and a modified information criterion for selecting between different model specifications.
