Special Issue Information
In the era of globalization and digitalization, the financial system—the lifeblood of the economy—is crucial for both national and global prosperity. The governance and mitigation of systemic financial risks have become a focal point for governments and financial regulators worldwide. As global economic integration accelerates, the complexity and unpredictability of financial markets increase. The convergence of local government debt, geopolitical tensions, climate change, and public health incidents has created a multifaceted landscape of systemic financial risks. These interconnected factors can trigger reactions in the financial markets, threatening economic stability and societal welfare.
In response to the current global economic climate, it is imperative to leverage financial technology and big data to enhance financial risk surveillance and early warning systems, improve local government debt structures, mitigate real estate market risks, and manage the systemic risks associated with cross-border capital flows. Rigorous investigation and exploration are necessary to address these challenges.
In light of this, we hereby announce a call for papers for a special issue dedicated to systemic financial risk, aiming to gather insights from experts and scholars globally to discuss the identification, assessment, monitoring, and management strategies of systemic financial risks. This special issue seeks to synthesize multidisciplinary research findings, offering valuable insights for policymakers, regulators, and market participants to support the stability and advancement of China's and the world's financial systems.
We invite experts and scholars across various fields to contribute cutting-edge theoretical and empirical research on the multifaceted analysis and integrated management of systemic financial risks.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Assessment and management of municipal debt risks
- Identification and mitigation strategies for climate-related financial risks
- Correlation analysis between major public emergencies and systemic risks
- The interplay between real estate market risks and systemic risk
- Strategies for identifying, monitoring, and combating illicit financial activities
