This Research Department is devoted to the analysis of international financial markets, as well as to providing economic policy advising on financial market issues. It is the largest economic research department of its kind in Germany and sees itself as one of the most important providers of financial market research in the realms of academia, politics, and business.
The optimal performance of international and, in particular, European financial markets is a guiding concern in the department’s research. Important topics of study include the regulation of various actors in capital markets and the relationships between financial markets and the real economy.
