Jack Willis

I am a Professor of Economics at Sciences Po, an Assistant Professor of Economics at Columbia University (on leave), and a Research Affiliate / Fellow at BREAD, CDEP, CEPR, J-PAL, and NBER. I obtained a PhD in economics from Harvard University in 2017, an MA in economics from the Paris School of Economics, and a BA and MA in maths from Cambridge University.

I work in development economics, on questions related to the financial lives of the poor, informal contracting and missing markets, learning and technology adoption, and infrastructure provision.
