> Forecasting has applications in several areas of Econometrics, although
> macroeconomic forecasting has occupied a relative large space in the
> literature historically. Recently, however, financial applications have
> gained momentum, with topics such as forecasting volatility,
> quantiles, distributions, etc. Panel-data techniques also show
> promise, since the added cross-sectional dimension allows the
> pooling of information, the pooling of forecasts, and pooling from
> different data frequencies, which is particularly important in
> financial applications.
>
> Forecasting in Rio is a chance to gather leading and younger researchers
> in this field to discuss this important topic in Econometrics in an open
> format.
>
> The conference will have fourteen Invited Lectures and also contributed
> sessions with open submission of papers. The idea is to have a
> minimum number of sessions running concurrently so as to allow for a
> high-quality discussion between speakers and audience.

> Conference Venue
>
> The conference will take place in the Graduate School of Economics
> (EPGE) of Getulio Vargas Foundation (FGV), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
> Getulio Vargas Foundation is located in Botafogo, a pleasant
> neighborhood of the [UTF-8?]â??Wonderful [UTF-8?]Cityâ??, close to Ipanema
and
> Leblon, where most hotels and restaurants are located. Since Rio is
> a tropical city, although July is officially winter, temperatures
> are around 25 degrees Celsius (77 Fahrenheit). Besides, rainfall is
> the lowest for the year, allowing for a variety of pleasant outdoor
activities.
