Current Research

My research interests are in the areas of industrial policy and international macroeconomics. I am currently working on the economic effects of industrial policy under the supervision of Rahul Mukerjee and Markus Eberhardt. My current research project titled "Does industrial policy impact capital flows?" uses a PVAR to investigate the response of capital flows to an industrial policy shock.

I am currently affiliated with the Centre of Finance, Credit and Macroeconomics (CFCM) and the Nottingham Centre for Research on Globalisation and Economic Policy (GEP).
