About me

Welcome! I'm Effie Karfaki, an Assistant Professor of Economics at Colby College. My research interests lie in International Finance and Applied Macroeconomics, with a particular interest in exchange rates and monetary policy. My research combines rich microdata, empirical analysis, and structural modeling to study how macroeconomic shocks and policies, such as large exchange rate movements and monetary policy interventions, affect economic activity and transmit across firms and households, and to evaluate the implications of alternative policy responses.
