Is International Relations Relevant for International Money and Finance?
Is International Relations Relevant for International Money and Finance? Thomas B. Pepinsky David A. Steinberg Department of Government Department of Political Science Cornell University University of Oregon [email protected] [email protected] FIRST DRAFT: August 5, 2014 THIS DRAFT: December 3, 2014 Is International Relations Relevant for International Money and Finance?* This paper investigates whether the discipline of international relations (IR) has contributed to international monetary and financial policy, and how it might do so more effectively. Using data from the Teaching, Research & International Policy (TRIP) surveys of policymakers, scholars, and academic journals, we show that IR research on money and finance remains a small fraction of all published IR research, and IR research on this issue rarely provides concrete policy prescriptions. This is unfortunate because scholars and policymakers agree that international money and finance are central concerns for contemporary policy. We suggest that the paucity of policy-oriented IR research on money and finance is largely a consequence of the relative success of economics in providing policymakers with the tools they need to understand economic policy problems, but that this is exacerbated by disciplinary incentives within the IR community. Increasing the policy relevance of academic IR research on money and finance will require changes to scholarly practice, and greater effort to capitalize on the complementarity of IR and economics. Although IR scholars have little influence

SEB Creates New Division to Further Sharpen Its Private Banking Offering
SEB creates new division to further sharpen its Private Banking offering SEB is establishing a new division, Private Wealth Management & Family Office, to further strengthen its focus on entrepreneurs, individuals and families and their businesses in SEB’s home markets. William Paus, today Co-Head of SEB’s Large Corporates & Financial Institutions division, has been appointed Head of the new division. Ever since SEB was founded, the bank has supported individuals and companies in their value creation. Private Banking is part of SEB's DNA, and the segment has seen its assets under management (AuM) grow to more than SEK 1,000bn over the years, corresponding to nearly 50 per cent of SEB’s total AuM. Fuelled by successful entrepreneurship, a favourable macroeconomic environment including demographic factors and strong financial markets, the global Private Banking industry is growing. By gathering SEB’s expertise within Private Banking in one division, the bank further sharpens its offering in response to the continuously changing needs of the customers, aiming to grow SEB’s savings and investments business. “SEB has strong and longstanding relationships with customers ranging from entrepreneurs to professional family offices, and I am confident that we, by creating this dedicated Private Wealth Management & Family Office division, will be able to become an even more relevant partner for both new and existing customers in our home markets. Our aim is to take a leading position in this increasingly important segment by offering first-class investment advisory based on SEB's entire product range of analysis, IPOs and alternative investments. I am delighted that William Paus is taking on this new challenge within the bank,” says Johan Torgeby, SEB’s President and CEO.
