HOUSEHOLD INDEBTEDNESS, HOUSE PRICES AND THE ECONOMY
September 19-20, 2008
Sveriges Riksbank, Stockholm, Sweden
Sveriges Riksbank, the Swedish Central Bank, is pleased to
announce that it will host a workshop on Household
Indebtedness, House Prices and the Economy.
AIM:
In the last few decades, house prices have undergone major
medium-run fluctuations in many industrialized economies.
Boom-bust cycles in house prices, coupled with a
substantial increase in household indebtedness, have drawn
the attention of policymakers and academics towards the
developments in housing markets and their impact on
economic activity and financial stability. In that
context, the aim of this workshop is to discuss recent
swings in house prices and the increasing indebtedness of
households, and their impact on the economy. We are
interested both in theoretical and empirical work
addressing the following topics: (i) household finance and
the determinants of household indebtedness, (ii) credit
markets, institutional change, and household indebtedness,
(iii) household indebtedness, housing markets, and their
implications for economic activity and financial stability,
(iv) the impact of household indebtedness and housing
markets on monetary policy. To address the last topic, we
also plan for a panel session with representatives from
academia as well as policymakers.
FORMAT:
Papers will be presented in plenary presentations of 40
minutes, followed by 10 minutes of comments by a discussant
and an additional 10 minute plenary discussion.
Approximately 11 papers will be presented, and overall
participation at the workshop will be limited to 40 people.
Lunch and a workshop dinner will be provided. Participation
in the conference is confirmed by Nobuhiro Kiyotaki and
Jose-Victor Rios-Rull.
EXPENSES:
Sveriges Riksbank will reimburse economy-class travel
expenses and cover accommodation for paper presenters and
discussants.
PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE:
A PDF file containing the paper should be e-mailed to the
organizing committee, at:
Email: MAILTO:lena.lofgren@riksbank.se
by April 28th, 2008. Authors will be notified by June 16th,
2008. Authors submitting papers should also indicate
whether they are willing to act as discussants.
ORGANIZATION:
The workshop program and other information about the
conference will be posted on the Riksbank website -
www.riksbank.com/workshop - as they become available.
The organizing committee consists of Franklin Allen, Tor
Jacobson, Daria Finocchiaro, Martin Johansson, Virginia Queijo

field of economics. Four new professorial posts have been
created and leading scholars in the fields, of experimental
economics (Nick Feltovich, Miguel Costa-Gomes) health (Ulf
Gerdtham), and labour (Hans Hvide) have been appointed in
recent months. In addition, to support research in
experimental methods, a major investment has been made in a
new, state-of-the-art experimental laboratory which opened
earlier this year. These specific developments are part of
the substantial general investment in the research base in
economics at the University of Aberdeen with a total of 6
professors and 4 junior staff appointed in recent years,
enabling the strengthening of traditional areas of research
excellence and the creation of new ones.
POSITION OVERVIEW:
As we enter this new and exciting phase in the development

Scottish Institute for Research in Economics (SIRE). SIRE
is a joint research venture of the Universities of
Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Heriot-Watt, Napier,
Paisley, St Andrews, Stirling and Strathclyde. SIRE is
directed by Professor John Moore.
There are three SIRE research programmes. Drawing on our
tradition of research in applied economics and our emerging
strength in experimental economics, the University of
Aberdeen will play an important role in both the Work and
Well-being programme, focussing on the economic and social
factors affecting the health and productivity of the
population, and in Behaviour, Incentives and Contracts
programme, which covers the broad field of microeconomics.
