The first annual Bank Research Conference was held at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in 2000. The conference has served to disseminate policy-relevant research on issues affecting the banking sector and the stability of the financial system. We evaluate the impact of the conference on policy and research communities, financial regulation, and the banking and finance literature. We examine the topics discussed since the conference’s inception and we provide qualitative evidence that the conference has contributed to policy implementation and evaluation. We also examine publication status and citation counts and show that the conference has made an important contribution to research in banking and finance.

第一届年度银行研究会议于 2000 年在联邦存款保险公司举行。会议旨在传播有关影响银行业和金融体系稳定性问题的政策相关研究。我们评估会议对政策和研究界、金融监管以及银行和金融文献的影响。我们审查了自会议开始以来讨论的主题，并提供了定性证据，证明会议对政策实施和评估做出了贡献。我们还检查了出版状况和引用次数，并表明会议对银行和金融研究做出了重要贡献。
