My recent research interests are diverse and include, without any order of preference, (1) Transmission of Monetary Policy, (2) Banking Networks and Spillovers, (3) Capital Structure and Investment, (4) Supply Chain Networks, (5) Firm-Level Productivity and (6) Propagation of Information (News) and it's real impact on Economy.
