SUMMARY:Macroeconomics & International Finance Seminar Series Presents: Dean Corbae
DESCRIPTION:Macroeconomics and International Finance Seminar\nDate: Tuesday\, January 13\, 2026\nTime: 1:40-3:00 p.m.\nLocation: E2-499\n\n \n\nSpeaker: Dean Corbae\nTitle: William Sellery Trukenbrod Chair in Finance\nAffiliation: University of Wisconsin – Madison\nHost: Grace Gu Steadmon\n \nSeminar title:  A Quantitative Model of Bank Merger Dynamics\n \n\nABSTRACT: \nWe develop a simple model of the bank merger process to study the rise in bank concentration following the deregulation of bank branching in the Riegle-Neal Act of 1994. Motivated by the data where currently 10 (dominant) banks have over 55 percent of the U.S. deposit market share while the remaining over 4000 (fringe) banks cover the rest\, we apply a dominant-fringe framework with a merger stage to model the rise in concentration following the change in regulation making interstate branching possible. First\, we study the effect of the merger wave on competition\, efficiency\, and stability of the banking industry. Then we use our model to understand the interaction between regulatory and monetary policy. Specifically\, how has the bank lending channel of monetary policy been affected by rising concentration; has it amplified or dampened the effectiveness of monetary policy? How might monetary policy itself contribute to mergers and rising concentration?

SUMMARY:Labor Against ICE
DESCRIPTION:Trump’s second term has been marked by a dramatic increase in immigration enforcement operations\, including the deployment of federal and national guard troops to major cities across the United States. Ramped-up ICE raids have resulted in injuries\, deaths\, and the disappearance of migrants and non migrants alike. As legal challenges demanding the cessation of indiscriminate workplace and neighborhood raids have largely failed\, how are workers and communities fighting back? This event is FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Refreshments provided. Immigrant and labor rights organizations will also be tabling. \nPlease join UC Santa Cruz’s Center for Labor and Community for a panel discussion with co-founder of LA Educators for Racial Justice (LAE4RJ)\, Denisha Jordan (United Teachers Los Angeles)\, founder of OEA Rapid Response Team and dual-language teacher\, Jessie Papalia (Oakland Education Association)\, Emergency Medicine Resident\, SatKartar Khalsa (SEIU 1021 Committee of Interns and Residents)\, Alex Quintero (@allthingslabor)\, and regional labor and community organizer Cesar Lara (California Federation of Labor) to learn how labor is organizing to defend migrants on the job. \nRSVP HERE \nEspañol_Labor_Against_ICE \nEnglish_Labor Against ICE \n
