For my current website, please visit: I am an Assistant Professor at the Institute for International Economic Studies at Stockholm University. I received my PhD in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania in May 2014, advised by Dirk Krueger (chair), Iourii Manovskii and Greg Kaplan. My research focuses broadly on macroeconomics. I am particularly interested in household finance, housing and labor markets. For more information see my research and CV pages. I can be contacted at kurt.mitman 'AT' iies.su.se |  |
