OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Bank of England is one of the policy institutions at the frontier of exploring agent-based models (ABM) to address some of the policy questions that it is facing. In this talk, we will take you through how researchers at the Bank have been using this modelling approach to simulate complex interactions between different agents in the economy to assess the potential impact of prudential policies. The talk will mainly focus on the results from: (i) an agent-based model of the UK housing market, investigating the impact of loan-to-value and loan-to-income limits on key housing market indicators; and (ii) a macroeconomic agent-based model, studying the joint impact of borrower and lender-based prudential policies on the housing and credit markets and the economy more widely.
About the speaker:
Arzu Uluc is Research Coordinator in the Financial Stability Strategy and Risk Directorate at the Bank of England.
Please note this event will be in hybrid format but will not be recorded.
