Welcome to my homepage!
I am a senior economist at the European Central Bank. I hold a PhD from the University of Bonn and do research in several areas of macroeconomics. I am especially interested in the structure of the international monetary system and also on topics around long-term growth and inequality.
In my policy work, I advise the ECB and the Banque de France on subjects surrounding global imbalances, exchange rates, capital flows and international spillovers of economic shocks. I have conducted several scenario analysis with the ECB-Global model, contributed to the International Economic Outlook of the ECB, the BMPE, the French Presidential Letter and briefings of the ECB governing council .
I also teach the international macroeconomics master course at the Paris School of Economics.
