About the Lecture:

In this lecture, by constructing a high-dimensional spillover network, in the context of public health emergencies, this lecture comprehensively examines the systemic financial risk contagion relationship among global stock markets, and conducts in-depth research on the driving mechanism behind it. On this basis, from a new perspective on the management of sudden public crises, we have put forward relevant suggestions for effectively responding to the impact of the epidemic and preventing imported risk contagion, so as to provide important reference basis for the improvement of the international financial risk monitoring mechanism and the improvement of risk management under sudden crises.
