Adrian B. Monninger

Welcome!

I am a PhD Candidate in Economics at The Johns Hopkins University.
I will join the Economics Department at Texas A&M University
as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2026.

My main research interests are heterogenous agent macroeconomics and subjective expectations as applied to monetary & fiscal policy.

My Job Market Paper employs a microdata-estimated structural HANK model to show the predominant impact of changes in subjective unemployment risk perception on volatility of automobile purchases. 

I am a contributor and researcher for econ-ARK. I served as consultant to the European Central Bank for implementation of the HARK toolkit, which models economic choices of heterogeneous agents.

I have research and work experience in various central banks.

• Sveriges Riksbank Research Dept. (Fall 2024)

• International Monetary Fund Fiscal Affairs Dept. (Summer 2024)

• Deutsche Bundesbank Research Dept. (2019-2020)

• European Central Bank Research Dept. (2018-2019 & Winter 2022)
