"Instead of rubbing their hands at their accumulation of paper wealth, [home owners] should realise that every €100,000 they “make” on housing is indirectly billed to their children ... Dutch voters have in effect chosen a policy that prices out their own people"

The Center for the sociology of innovation learned with great sadness that Michel Callon has passed away.

A graduate of the École des Mines, Michel joined the center in the late 1960s and was its director from 1982 to 1994.

last week, I was in an expert hearing on housing at European Parliament.

I told MEPs that I worry the Commission's European Affordable Housing Plan, in partnership w European Investment Bank, may morph into another derisking vehicle for institutional landlords.

"In Ireland, nearly half of all units delivered since 2017 were purchased by investment funds. Across Sweden, the share of private rental apartments with institutional investors as landlords has swelled to 24%. In Berlin, €40bn of housing assets are now in institutional portfolios, 10% of the total"

In the age of asset manager capitalism, do asset owners still matter? And what does this mean for the green transition?

@nataschavanderzwan.bsky.social and I investigate this through an in-depth study of how some of the most important asset owners - pension funds - invest.

Now out in SER!

Given Chaos, I don’t expect anyone to notice the hearing for head of Federal Housing Finance Agency. But FHFA is one of the most consequential agencies that most folks have never heard of.
