I am JF Turla, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of the Philippines School of Economics. 

My interests include macroeconomics, monetary economics, financial economics, and development economics.  

In particular, the research I do dabbles in the intersection of macroeconomic policy, financial institutions and markets, and inclusive growth and development. 

For my doctoral dissertation, I focus on examining the aggregate impacts of financial inclusion on the stability of the financial system and learning more about its implications on monetary policy and macroprudential regulation.
