| Partners |
It is the goal of the Centre for Analytical Finance to form partnerships with finance research centres and think-tanks of global standing. It is hoped that the partnerships will lead to collaborative research and joint conferences, among other activities.We are happy to announce that the following institutions have decided to be our partners:
India Development Foundation
IDF is a privately funded, non-profit, non-partisan research foundation set up as a Trust on April 2, 2003. Its major objective is to develop awareness about how markets work, why they are desirable and how we can develop them. IDF aims to help policy makers transform emerging economies into market based societies. There are three aspects to its activities: to offer recommendations on what needs to be done. These recommendations are derived from research and analysis; to generate a blue-print of how to implement the recommendations. These are worked out through interaction with practitioners and stakeholders; and to disseminate its work through publications in peer-reviewed journals, workshops, seminars and various media to reach out to practitioners, policymakers and the general public. It also undertakes pilot projects to demonstrate how its recommendations can be realised.
National Council of Applied Economic Research
The National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) is an independent, non-profit research institution that is committed to assist government, civil society and the private sector to make informed policy choices. The Council encourages research on Indian themes using Indian data. NCAER is dedicated to the goal of connectivity and seeks to establish interlinkages with research institutions interested in the areas of industry and infrastructure development, macroeconomic analysis and human development. As a premier applied economics research institute in the country NCAER is committed to enhance public awareness of policy issues in business and economics and to facilitate solutions that will contribute to overall national development. By publishing the findings of its research, and through the active participation of its senior staff in the media and policy, it aims to bring new knowledge to the attention of policy makers.
New Zealand Institute for the Study of Competition and Regulation (ISCR)
ISCR is an independent, nonprofit research institute that focuses on competition and regulatory issues. Established in February 1998, it is located in Victoria University of Wellington’s Rutherford House campus in downtown Wellington, New Zealand and is funded by both private and public sector organisations. ISCR undertakes research on the organisation and regulation of markets, industries and firms. The principal objective of this research is to shed light on competition and regulatory issues, particularly those relevant to New Zealand. Although the central areas of interest are economics and finance, expertise in other subjects, such as law, is incorporated into many of the projects.
Swedish Institute for Financial Research (SIFR)
The Swedish Institute for Financial Research (SIFR) was founded in the year 2000 as a private and independent non-profit association to conduct and stimulate high quality research on issues in financial economics and to narrow the gap between academic research and the practice of the financial industry.
Wharton Financial Institutions Center (FIC)
The Wharton Financial Institutions Center (FIC), an internationally recognised centre for research in financial institutions housed at the Wharton School will host joint conferences with the Centre for Analytical Finance. The theme and format of the first joint conference under this partnership will be announced at an appropriate time.
