Afonso S. Moura

I am an Economist in the Directorate General Economics at the European Central Bank, on leave from the Economics and Research Department of Banco de Portugal. 

I received my PhD in Economics from Nova SBE in 2025, under the supervision of João B. Duarte. I am an empirical macroeconomist. I study how monetary and fiscal policy shape household consumption, firm dynamics, and employment. 

During my PhD, I was a trainee in the at the ECB (2023) and at the IMF (2022).
