The RSI pays tribute to Nobel Laureate Reinhard Selten (1930–2016) and will be led by his former students Prof. Dr. Benny Moldovanu (University of Bonn) and Prof. Dr. Bettina Rockenbach (University of Cologne) as founding directors. The institute’s mission is to promote independent thinking, excellent research and innovative methodological approaches in economics and related areas.
