The New Bagehot Project is a policy tool to fight financial crises in the 21st century: an online platform where crisis fighters can explore the key design decisions their predecessors made in interventions throughout history and around the world. The New Bagehot Project was named in honor of Walter Bagehot, author of Lombard Street (1873), still considered the seminal text on crisis fighting.

The New Bagehot Project is an initiative of the Yale Program on Financial Stability at the Yale School of Management. YPFS invites institutions responsible for crisis management to partner with us to contribute their knowledge and expertise to the New Bagehot Project. To receive more information about partnering with YPFS, email Christian McNamara.
