CHICAGO, Jan. 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CME Group, the world's leading and most diverse derivatives marketplace, and the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) announced Jose Scheinkman, Professor of Economics at both Columbia and Princeton Universities, as the 2014 recipient of the CME Group-MSRI Prize in Innovative Quantitative Applications.  A ceremony honoring Scheinkman will take place at CME Group Headquarters on Monday, Feb. 9, at 10:00 a.m. CT and will feature a dynamic discussion on the topic of economic bubbles.

CME Group-MSRI Prize recognizes individuals who contribute original concepts in mathematical, statistical or computational methods for the study of the markets' behavior and global economics.  Scheinkman, Edwin W. Rickert Professor of Economics at Columbia University, Theodore A. Wells '29 Professor of Economics (emeritus) at Princeton University and a Research Associate at the NBER, has done extensive research on this year's panel topic.  His focus has been on building mathematical models that shed light on a variety of economic and social phenomena.  Phenomena such as: economic fluctuations, the nature of competition, the growth of cities, informal economic activity, the spatial distribution of crime, and the dynamics of price bubbles. 

"Quantitative methods have provided and will continue to provide invaluable insights to our understanding of financial economics," said Scheinkman. "I am delighted to receive the CME Group-MSRI prize and especially honored to join the very distinguished group of economists that received the prize in previous years."

The panel discussion, formally titled: "Bubbles: How They Form and How They Collapse," will precede the award ceremony.  Several distinguished economists and academics will be participating in the panel, including:

  • Gadi Barlevy, Senior Economist and Research Advisor, Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago

  • Leonid Kogan, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Professor of Management at the MIT Sloan School of Management
  • Pietro Veronesi, Roman Family Professor of Finance, University of Chicago
  • Wei Xiong, Hugh Leander and Mary Trumbull Adams Professor in Finance, Professor of Economics, Princeton University
  • Moderator: David Eisenbud, Director, Mathematical Sciences Research Institute

"Professor Scheinkman's outstanding contributions to quantitative analysis are invaluable to the understanding and application of financial economics on which world markets depend," explained Leo Melamed, Chairman Emeritus of CME Group. 

"Professor Scheinkman's research has produced extraordinary insights into problems facing today's economies," said David Eisenbud, Director of MSRI and Prize Selection Committee member. "MSRI is proud to be collaborating with the CME Group in acknowledging Professor Scheinkman's innovative analysis and its contribution to the mathematics community."

Other recipients of the CME Group-MSRI Prize include:
