Prize winners

2005

Eugene F. Fama of the University of Chicago was the first winner of the Deutsche Bank Prize.[2] He was cited for

'his fundamental contributions to financial economics, in particular, for developing and investigating the concept of market efficiency, which is now a cornerstone in the field of finance'.[3]

The award was presented in Frankfurt on October 6, 2005, by Josef Ackermann of Deutsche Bank. The ceremony was preceded by an academic symposium entitled “Market Efficiency Today”. Speakers included: Nouriel Roubini (NYU), Eric Ghysels (UNC), M. Hashem Pesaran (Cambridge), Lawrence E. Harris (USC), Matthew Bishop (The Economist), Mark Salmon (Warwick), and Jan P. Krahnen (Goethe Univ. and CFS).[4]

2007

Michael Woodford, of Columbia University, won the 2007 Deutsche Bank Prize. He was cited for his fundamental contributions to monetary theory and practice:

'Professor Woodford has developed an influential theory of the monetary economy that is built on microeconomic foundations. Its application has proved extremely useful for analyzing the role of expectations and communication in the implementation of monetary policy. Michael Woodford’s research is summarized in his monumental monograph, "Interest and Prices: Foundations of a Theory of Monetary Policy", which has quickly become the standard reference for monetary theory and analysis among academic economists and their colleagues at central banks.'[5]

The award ceremony was preceded by a symposium on "The Theory and Practice of Monetary Policy Today".[6]

2009

Robert J. Shiller, of Yale University, was awarded the 2009 Deutsche Bank Prize. He was cited for

'his pioneering research in the field of financial economics, relating to the dynamics of asset prices... His contributions on risk sharing, financial market volatility, bubbles and crises, have received widespread attention among academics, practitioners and policy makers alike.'[7]

A symposium on "Financial Innovation and Economic Crisis" was held to coincide with the prize ceremony.[8]

2011

Kenneth Rogoff, of Harvard University, was awarded the 2011 Deutsche Bank Prize. The jury cited his work on

'sovereign default and debt restructuring, exchange rate developments, global imbalances and the development of financial crises'.[9]

The jury also mentioned his history of financial crises, published jointly with Carmen M. Reinhart in (2009), “This Time is Different: Eight Centuries of Financial Folly”.

The Award will be handed during the CFS Symposium "Global Perspective on Financial Crisis" on September 22, 2011 at Campus Westend, Goethe University Frankfurt.[10]
