The Collaborative Research Center (CRC) addresses three key societal challenges: (i) how to promote equality of opportunity; (ii) how to regulate markets in light of the internationalization and digitalization of economic activity; and (iii) how to safeguard the stability of the financial system.In a market economy, individual consumption and investment decisions and the prevailing market conditions shape personal well-being and life outcomes. An individual’s decision-making abilities and skills are largely formed in the family and at school. The prevailing market conditions are the result of decisions made by other participants in product and financial markets—markets that are embedded in the legal and regulatory system. This perspective suggests connections among three important policy areas: family and education policies; product market regulation; and financial market regulation.The CRC contributes to the foundations of decision-making in these three areas, starting from the premise that adequate answers to the above challenges must be based on representations of human behavior that are appropriate for the issues at hand. Based on a wide methodological spectrum of expertise in theoretical and empirical economics, the CRC assesses how specific policies and institutions affect economic outcomes and develops novel institutional and policy solutions.Strong complementarities among the projects within each area, across the three areas, and between the two locations provide the basis for internationally visible research that highlights economics as a social science addressing societal challenges. Targeted dissemination activities and the CRC researchers’ broad experience in communicating their findings to diverse audiences ensure the policy impact of this research.

该研究中心致力于解决三大社会问题：（1）如何促进机会平等;（2）如何根据经济活动的国际化和数字化监管市场;（3）如何维护金融体系的稳定。在市场经济中，个人的消费和投资决策以及当时的市场条件决定了个人的福祉和生活结果。一个人的决策能力和技能主要是在家庭和学校中形成的。当前的市场状况是产品和金融市场其他参与者决策的结果，而这些市场是嵌入在法律的和监管体系中的。从这一观点出发，家庭和教育政策、产品市场监管和金融市场监管这三个重要政策领域之间存在着联系。CRC为这三个领域的决策奠定了基础，其出发点是，应对上述挑战的充分答案必须基于与当前问题相适应的人类行为表现。CRC基于理论和实证经济学的广泛方法论专业知识，评估特定政策和制度如何影响经济成果，并开发新的制度和政策解决方案。每个领域内，三个领域以及两个地点之间的项目之间的强大互补性为国际知名的研究提供了基础，突出了经济学作为一门社会科学应对社会挑战。有针对性的传播活动和儿童权利委员会研究人员在向不同受众传播其研究结果方面的广泛经验确保了这项研究的政策影响。
