High-value payment systems (HVPSs) are typically liquidity intensive because payments are settled on a gross basis. State-of-the-art solutions to this problem include algorithms that seek netting sets and allow for ad hoc reordering of submitted payments. This paper introduces a new algorithm...

This paper uses reinforcement learning (RL) to approximate the policy rules of banks participating in a high-value payments system (HVPS). The objective of the RL agents is to learn a policy function for the choice of amount of liquidity provided to the system at the beginning of the day....

Computational methods both open the frontiers of economic analysis and serve as a bottleneck in what can be achieved. Using the quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) algorithm, we are the first to study whether quantum computing can improve the run time of economic applications and challenges in doing so....

Predicting the economy's short-term dynamics-a vital input to economic agents' decisionmaking process-often uses lagged indicators in linear models. This is typically sufficient during normal times but could prove inadequate during crisis periods such as COVID-19. This paper demonstrates: (a)...
