This article argues that in order to manage systemic risk, we need more sophisticated and realistic cognitive framework through which to analyse its dynamics and costs. We used macroprudential and microprudential policy to manage explicit systemic risk. Systemic risk is a propagation risk, where shocks spread in time and across sectors. Whilst there are no easy answers, employing this conception of systemic risk management provides an alternative cognitive framework. The narrative approach developed in this article has two dimensions: theoretical tradition in economics (political economics, mathematical economics, institutional economics) and key concepts (rent-seeking, external costs, complexity, nano-finance). To that end, the article develops a social conception of systemic risk, drawing on institutionalist theories.
