GeoFinance Lab

Geopolitics and Geoeconomics of Finance Lab (GeoFinance Lab)
Duration: 2026 – 2028

Launched in 2026 jointly by the Florence School of Banking and Finance and the School of Transnational Governance, the Geopolitics and Geoeconomics of Finance Lab (GeoFinance Lab) aims to strengthen understanding of how geopolitical competition, financial interdependence, and economic security are reshaping global finance, with a particular focus on Europe’s capacity to act. Taking a broader view of finance, the Lab analyses its interaction with trade, investment, energy, technology, and critical infrastructure. Its research compass is organised around four interconnected areas: Finance and Strategic Autonomy; Digital Finance and Competitiveness; Geoeconomic Transformation of the International Monetary and Financial System; and European Leadership in Global Monetary Governance. The Lab combines policy research, high-level dialogue, and capacity building for policymakers and market practitioners.
