Hej Ciaran! Can you tell us a bit about your background?

- I was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland. I moved to the UK for my undergraduate, and then worked as a fixed income trader at a bank in London. I subsequently moved to San Francisco to embark on my PhD at Stanford.

 

Why CeMoF and the IIES?

- It was a very easy decision to make. Not only am I excited to converse with so many talented economists here, it became immediately apparent to me when I visited early this year how friendly and welcoming the Economics community at Stockholm University is.

Ciaran’s research interests focus on monetary policy and household finance. His first line of work investigates different monetary policy regimes and the resulting set of feasible policy tools. He also works with life cycle models that incorporate portfolio choice to try and understand household financial decisions observed in survey data (for example, health insurance products and financial asset portfolios).
