Next was a fantastic talk by @bjmbraun on the power of #finance under asset manager #capitalism at the #UCLIPP. Asset managers have gathered huge stakes in most large public firms in the US, and this talk examines the implications of that and why it hasn't seemed to result in these investors using their power. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouau_HaAJ3I (5/7)

Perfect headline to cap the year.
Prediction for 2023 (and all futures years): Pensions will remain the elephant in the macrofinance room.

Not convinced that "piping financial data into Excel" is why Microsoft bought a stake in the London Stock Exchange...

Andrea BinderMy book 'Offshore Finance and State Power' will be out on Jan 9, 2023 with Oxford University Press.
It's the end point of an incredibly interesting academic & personal journey. Along its way I learned a lot. I hope you'll find some of it insightful too.
I'll share more about the book's content once it is actually there in the physical world. For now I just go and celebrate. What a ride. 🎉
Offshore Finance and State Power
Offshore financial centers such as Luxembourg, the Cayman Islands or the City of London provide non-residents with a legal framework that is strong on property rights and soft on taxation and regulation. Building on a historical-institutionalist comparison of Britain, Germany, Brazil, and Mexico, Offshore Finance and State Power asks how these offshore financial services affect the power of the state.

Haven't seen this data before: All but three of the biggest global banks increased their bond underwriting of high-emissions industries between 2019 and 2021. Grim.
