The House of Finance engages in collaborations both as a unit and through its individual affiliated institutions at the national and international level, maintaining close ties to central banks and regulatory authorities as well as research institutions and think tanks in related academic fields.

As one of the "Houses of" initiatives launched by the State of Hesse, the House of Finance maintains strong ties with its four sister institutions, particularly the House of Digital Transformation (HoDT) and the House of Pharma and Healthcare (HoPH), with whom the Goethe Business School offers joint executive degree programs. 

Under the umbrella of the House of Finance, joint research collaborations and consulting activities are conductedwith several federal institutions, including the Research Data and Service Centre of the Deutsche Bundesbank and the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin).

Through the newly established Competence and Transfer Center “Sustainable Finance and Regulation” (CTC), the House of Finance also coordinates an interdisciplinary network of primarily regional academic partners. This research network originates from a Memorandum of Understanding signed in 2022 between Goethe University and the Frankfurt-based office of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), responsible for Europe and Africa, as along with several associated partners. The cooperation agreement highlights the strength of Frankfurt am Main as a research hub, characterized by expertise in economics, finance, and the natural sciences. To expand the outreach of the sustainability network centered around the CTC, the House of Finance became a member of the Sustainable Finance Cluster (SFC) Frankfurt am Main in 2025.

The House of Finance also cooperates with the Frankfurt Institute of Risk Management (FIRM) and the Institute for Banking and Financial History (IBF), two non-profit institutions dedicated to research and policy advising.

Internationally, the House of Finance maintains joint research projects and engages in expert dialogue with institutions such as the European Central Bank, the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA), and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).

A long-standing academic partnership exists with the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Through the Christoph von Metzler Visiting Professorship for International Finance, this partnership includes a faculty exchange program with annually rotating guest professors. In addition, the House of Finance maintains close ties to the “Paris House of Finance” based at Paris Dauphine University. 

In the field of postgraduate education, the House of Finance has several bilateral partnerships with renowned European universities, including members of the Quantitative Techniques for Economics and Management (QTEM) network, such as LUISS University in Rome and the Solvay Brussels School of Economics and Management.  Further international collaborations have been established with the Center for Advanced Research (CARF) at the University of Tokyo and the Nordic Finance Network (NFN) in Scandinavia.

Through the House of Finance, Goethe University is a member of the Global Research Alliance for Sustainable Finance and Investments (GRASFI), a network of research-intensive academic institutions including the University of Oxford, the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), and the Université Paris-Dauphine.

At the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR), researchers from the House of Finance currently hold two key leadership roles: Nicola Fuchs-Schündeln is Programme Director for Macroeconomics and Growth, while Michalis Haliassos serves as Director of the Research Policy Network (RPN) on Household Finance.
