Systemic Risk Centre

The Systemic Risk Centre (SRC) is a research centre in London, hosted at the London School of Economics[1] and dedicated to the study of systemic risk and the development of policies for addressing the effects of financial crises.

The SRC is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and was founded in 2012.

[3][4] The SRC has two directors, Jon Danielsson and Jean-Pierre Zigrand, staff of eight researchers and faculty from the London School of Economics (LSE) and the University College London (UCL).

The Centre's main research activities are divided into four different areas: SRC Research is disseminated through events, workshops, seminars and published materials – in particular, through a discussion paper series, an events programme and System Risk's youtube channel.

The SRC organized a joint event with the International Monetary Fund on Macroprudential Stress Test and Policies: A Framework.
