Ben Bernanke, Diamond Douglas and Philip Dybvig won the 2022 Nobel Prize in Economics for showing that the financial intermediation system, namely the banking system, plays an important role in explaining business cycles and crises. On the one hand, they have studied the behaviour of banks in simple models and, on the other hand, they have empirically analysed the macroeconomic importance of financial intermediation. Today, we know much more about financial intermediation, crises and bank panics than we did fifty years ago – and this is due in no small part to the three Nobel Prize-winning scientists.
The Nobel Prize in Economics 2020 – The Role of Banks in the Economy: Ben Bernanke, Douglas W. Diamond and Philip Dybvig” is the theme of a conference organised by the Committee on Economic Sciences.
