The presentation within Brown Bag Seminar on July 11, 2019, will be held by Assoc. Prof. Oscar Claveria, PhD from the University of Barcelona, and will present the work "New Methodological Approaches to Analysis of the Results of the Confidence Survey".
A short summary of the presentation:
Business and Consumer Surveys are the only direct source of data on the expectations of economic entities. As such, they are frequently used for macroeconomic forecasting and testing of various hypotheses from the sphere of behavioral economics. Recent advances in computing techniques open up a whole array of new possibilities for analyzing the information content of the confidence survey. The aim of this paper is to present some of the most recent research lines in this context and to examine their potential utilitarian value for macroeconomic analysis.
The Brown bag Seminar will be held in Hall 51 starting at 2 PM.
Description of the Brown Bag Seminar concept:
The Brown Bag Seminar (BBS) is an informal one-hour workshop with aim of presenting research in different stages of design (ideas, rounded theoretical framework, conducted empirical research, etc.), promoting discussion and creating a stimulating environment focused on the constructive discussion between exhibitors and the rest of participants of the seminar. The basic idea of the BBS is to create a platform where at least once a month, the FEB ZG employees will have the opportunity to present the ideas and articles they work on within their scientific-research work.

We invite you to respond and help with your constructive comments to exhibitors and expose by yourself the topics you are currently working on, unpublished works or present the research ideas you are thinking about.
The idea is that presentations (in English or in Croatian - depending on the presenter's preference) last for 30-40 minutes, followed by a discussion. Since the BBS is informal and is usually taking place at lunchtime, snacks and refreshing beverages will be served on the BBS.
