SUMMARY:Applied Microeconomics and Trade Seminar Series Presents: Olivia Bordeu
DESCRIPTION:Applied Microeconomics and Trade Seminar\nDate: Thursday\, January 15\, 2026\nTime: 1:40 – 3:00 p.m.\nLocation: E2-499\n\n \n\nSpeaker: Olivia Bordeu \nTitle: Assistant Professor of Economics \nAffiliation: University of California\, Berkeley  \nHost: Jeremy West \nSeminar title: Bank Branches and the Allocation of Capital across Cities\n\nABSTRACT: We study how banking market structure and branch networks shape the spatial mobility of capital. Using administrative loan-level data from Chile\, we show that bank-level deposit shocks lead receiving banks to increase lending and lower interest rates relative to other banks. Interest rate reductions are concentrated in cities where the bank has a small market share\, consistent with local market power. We develop and estimate a quantitative spatial model with multi-city banks\, oligopolistic local credit markets\, and frictions in interbank lending. These channels lead to spatial dispersion in interest rates and the marginal productivity of physical capital\, reducing GDP. Interbank frictions reduce steady-state GDP by 0.04%\, while spatial variation in loan markups reduces GDP by 0.5%. Bank mergers improve financial integration between cities but reduce competition\, generating heterogeneous welfare effects that depend on the merging banks’ geographic overlap.

SUMMARY:Ecology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World
DESCRIPTION:Norris Center Art + Science Graduate Fellowship Exhibition \nEcology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World brings together the work of ten graduate students supported by the Kenneth S. Norris Center for Natural History Art + Science Fellowship\, a program dedicated to creative research connecting art with the natural world. Across media – including sound\, moving image\, music\, performance\, installation\, comics\, social practice\, photography\, and storytelling – the artists in Ecology of Presence emphasize relationality and careful attention to place as essential to building relationships with environs. As accelerating environmental change and technological dependency threaten ways of belonging\, the works in this exhibition maintain a steadfast commitment to interdisciplinary approaches that propose kinship with the natural world. By coming together\, Art + Science Fellows artworks and social practices suggest ways of imagining human life in relation to the more-than-human world.
