Academic Achievements
- His paper 'Spillovers of US Interest Rates, Monetary Policy & Information Effects' was accepted in the Journal of International Economics. His paper 'The International Monetary Transmission Mechanism' with Lawrence Christiano and Husnu Dalgic is forthcoming and was presented at the NBER's 39th Annual Conference on Macroeconomics, 2024.
Research Experience
- One strand of his research identifies and quantifies the causal impact of external shocks—such as those originating from the Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank, and major US financial institutions—on Emerging Markets. Another strand explores how financial frictions and agent heterogeneity shape the transmission of these shocks. For instance, he analyzes how differences across households influence optimal monetary policy in Emerging Markets and uses credit registry data to uncover distinct transmission mechanisms of US monetary policy within and outside the US.
Background
- Assistant Professor of Economics at McGill University. His research lies at the intersection of international economics and monetary policy, with a focus on how financial shocks in Advanced Economies spill over into Emerging Markets.
