Jiu Lian (廉九)
Assistant Professor, Zhejiang University
I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the School of Economics, Zhejiang University. I received my PhD in Economics from the Australian National University in May 2026.
My research investigates the drivers of economic inequality and their policy implications using quantitative macroeconomic models. I study how crime activity and labor income shocks contribute to low asset holdings among the poor, while also examining the heterogeneity of wealth accumulation paths and optimal taxation schemes for the wealthiest households.
