(只提供英文版本) On December 5, 2025, the department hosted a public lecture by Professor Nobuyuki Hanaki, a world leading experimental economist. Professor Hanaki is the Director of the Institute of Social and Economic Research at Osaka University and a member of the EAF Academic Advisory Board. His lecture presented an interesting and inspiring experimental study comparing participants’ willingness to pay for stock forecasting advice derived from algorithms, financial experts, and peers.
The public lecture was well attended by EAF faculty and students, despite coinciding with the exam revision period, including participants in the BBA Economics Future Economist Program, and sparked lively discussion. The lecture was part of Professor Hanaki’s visit to the department, which also included meetings to discuss potential joint research projects and consultations with individual faculty members.
