Overview
Editorial by Marie-Hélène Broihanne,
Maxime Merli, and Patrick Roger
Behavioral finance combines economics, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience to analyze economic and financial stakeholders’ decisions and their behavior differently. This trend sheds new light on market malfunctioning and underlines the need to strengthen the regulation of financial activities.
The Chair's researchers work in collaboration with colleagues from French and foreign universities (Paris Dauphine University, University of Montpellier, INEF Network, Catholic University of Louvain, University of Lausanne), financial companies (Cortal Consors, UBS Global Asset Management), or institutions (Observatoire de l'Epargne Européenne).
