Ancient Toy Inspires Low-Cost Medical Diagnostic Tool

Ancient Toy Inspires Low-Cost Medical Diagnostic Tool

Old is gold indeed. Most children in the world used/use to play a threaded toy in their hands. The toy was just used for fun but it has been realized that the toy is very useful in medical diagnosis. It is also known as a button spinner, buzzer or spinning disk. It is a simplistic child's toy, with a button or disk threaded through two strings that are affixed to handles. A child begins by winding the strings and then pulling on the handles to make the threads unwind and the button spin. Pulling and relaxing the strings repeatedly makes the button spin faster.

2017 Biennial IADI Research Conference: Designing an Optimal Deposit Insurance System in the wake of Financial Crisis - Theory and Practice

1-2 June 2017, Basel, Switzerland

The International Association of Deposit Insurers (IADI) invites research papers for its Biennial Research Conference to be held at the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland on 1-2 June 2017.

Deposit insurance systems around the world faced a variety of challenges during the recent financial crisis and played a critical role in maintaining financial stability. IADI established its Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems, which emphasize the importance of prompt payouts, clear funding arrangements and more effective contingency planning and crisis management, among other critical elements, to ensure that deposit insurance systems are credible. Although important progress has been made in implementing the framework laid out in the Core Principles, there are several issues in designing an optimal deposit insurance system that require further research. The IADI research conference provides a forum for researchers and deposit insurance and bank resolution practitioners to advance our knowledge about a wide range of issues facing deposit insurers. Thus, the format of the conference will be a blend of research paper presentations with discussants and panels of practitioner experts.

TOPICS: For the research paper sessions, the Program Committee invites theoretical and empirical papers of relevance to deposit insurers. Topics of special interest include, but are not limited to:
1. Optimal level (i.e. coverage) of deposit insurance
2. Optimal or fair pricing (for charging fees/premiums) of deposit insurance
3. Optimal funding structure for deposit insurers
4. Risk taking by banks and its impact on deposit insurance
5. Estimating systemic risk for the design of the financial safety net
6. Assessment of liquidity needs for deposit insurance systems
7. Issues in the design of harmonized deposit insurance systems (e.g. Europe)

In addition to the above-mentioned indicative topic, the organisers may consider research work in the area of bank supervision and resolution frameworks and issues concerning financial stability. The priority will, however, be given to the topics directly relating to deposit insurance.

CONFERENCE DETAILS: The conference will be spread over one and half days and will include presentations by researchers and presentations by the practitioners. Each research paper will be discussed by discussants. Ample time will be provided for audience participation and informal discussions among conference participants. Research papers and panel presentations will be posted on the IADI public web site.

PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: Expenses for travel and lodging will be reimbursed for researchers whose papers are selected for presentation at the conference. Paper submissions must be received by 24 February 2017. Authors will be notified regarding the status of their papers by 10th March 2017. Please submit papers by email as "pdf" files to: David.Walker@iadi.org and Kumudini.Hajra@iadi.org Please name the file: "YourLastName.iadi.pdf."

FURTHER INFORMATION: For additional information, please contact the IADI Secretary General, Mr. David Walker at David.Walker@iadi.org or +41 61 280 9950 or IADI Senior Policy and Research Advisor, Ms. Kumudini Hajra at Kumudini.Hajra@iadi.org or +41 61 280 9930.
