Alen Bosankic is a research assistant in the BMBF-funded research project "Was sollen Banken tun? Zur Bedeutung von Legitimität und Rationalität im Bankensystem". In this context he is concerned with the social expectations, which were crucial for the design of the regulatory framework in the "Basel Committee on Banking Supervision". He considers the interplay between an economics expert and expectation formation.

Bosankic studied political science, sociology and social psychology at the University of Frankfurt / M. In his thesis "Transnationale Unternehmen als Friedensstifter: eine Analyse zur Corporate Security Responsibility", he dealt with the peacemaking potential of transnational companies in conflict areas.
