Milivoje Davidovic: HomoEconomicusHi everyone, I am a professor of quantitative finance and financial econometrics in the Finance Academic Group at Northeastern University, in Boston, Massachusetts. This channel will contain educational materials in economics, finance, data science, and coding that can be used to supplement various undergraduate and graduate courses in colleges and universities. I will share some of my lectures and post occasional material, and I will try to help you gain familiarity with key concepts and techniques from macroeconomics, financial modeling, and data analytics. What’s more, I will be recording some exciting field discussions with various experts in economics and finance from all over Europe and the United States. The overall goal of the channel is to popularize the world of economics and financial data science, and to help others build up their skills in these exciting areas. This is a fun new experience for me, so any comments, questions, or suggestions are always welcome.
