Department of Macro-Financial Analysis
The research Department contributes to the most recent debate on changing nature of global financial landscape in line with liberalization of global financial markets, agents, institutions, and corresponding policy synchronization. Research areas covered by the Department stand at the intersection of financial economics, macroeconomics, and econometrics. The research should promote broader implications of financialization to the real sector of the economy and help to navigate corresponding policy options for relevant stakeholders.
Areas of interest:
- Ongoing financialization in the context of the new economic paradigm.
- Finance-growth nexus (Debt-growth nexus).
- Implications of financial and real business cycle (de-)synchronization for macroeconomic imbalances and economic convergence.
- New challenges for measuring illicit capital flows and its impact on the real economy.
- Disturbances in financial markets and their mutual interdependence.
- Spatial dimension of macro-finance interlinkages and systemic risk analysis
