4 MACFINROBODS WP, London, January -, WP Objectives Behaviour under uncertainty, heterogeneous agents and herding O.. Use laboratory experiments to characterize micro-level decisions when faces with high uncertainty in transition between normal, boom and crisis times; O.. Test and adapt behavioural assumptions recently used in macro-economic modeling (e.g. conformism and loss aversion); O.. Craft macro-economic models with behaviourally realistic heterogeneous agents and understand how outcomes dier from representative-agent model; O.. Analyze eects of monetary, scal and macro-prudential policies in macro-economic models with behaviourally realistic heterogeneous agents;
