Looking forward to chatting with potential @Cambridge_Uni economics candidates later today and answering any questions you have about #economics at #Cambridge (one of the oldest economics faculties in the world) or the wonderful @Kings_College.
Did you know that @Kings_College has a long tradition in #economics?

It has been the home of many great economists, such as Richard Kahn, Nicholas Kaldor, John Maynard Keynes, Arthur Cecil Pigou, Joan Robinson, Richard Stone and Oliver Hart to name a few. Image
Among @Cambridge_Uni Colleges, at King's we currently have one of the largest number of #economics Fellows, including my amazing colleagues Aytek Erdil, @elisafaraglia, @giannitsarou & Hamid Sabourian (with super interesting research interests from macroeconomics to game theory). Image
Great chatting to you all just now!

For more information about #economics @Kings_College (including some example questions), see: kings.cam.ac.uk/study/undergra…

The Faculty of Economics also has lots of information and answers to pre-submitted questions here: econ.cam.ac.uk/apply/ba-econo…

Super excited to see our paper on #Covid19 #Fiscal Support and its Effectiveness, with Alexander Chudik @DallasFed & @mraissi80 @IMFNews, out in Economics Letters. You can read it (free access) from here: authors.elsevier.com/c/1dDlMbZedt0om #TGVAR 1/n Image
With new variants/waves & reimposition of restrictions in some regions, governments around the world are calling for a careful assessment of the effectiveness of the adopted #Covid19 #fiscal measures before they embark on further easing or tailoring of measures 2/n
The #Covid19 pandemic led to a sharp tightening of global #financial conditions at the acute phase of the crisis and has inflicted large economic losses across the world (see Figure below) ... 3/n Image

What are the implications of excess global financial market volatility on economic growth? Are there threshold effects in the relationship between growth & excess global volatility for individual countries? How should we model the nonlinear effects in a multi-country setting? 1/n
We answer these questions in recent work with Alexander Chudik @DallasFed, M Hashem Pesaran @USCDornsife @TrinCollCam, @mraissi80 @IMFNews & @arebucci1 @JHUCarey @cepr_org @nberpubs: ideas.repec.org/p/cam/camdae/2… #TGVAR 2/n
The #Covid19 #pandemic has been a shock like no other, initiating simultaneous demand and supply disruptions. In addition, it led to a sharp tightening in global #financial market conditions during the first quarter of 2020. 3/n Image

In a recent paper, with Alexander Chudik @DallasFed, M Hashem Pesaran @USCDornsife, @mraissi80 @IMFNews & @arebucci1 @JHUCarey, we develop a threshold-augmented dynamic multi-country model (#TGVAR) to quantify the #macroeconomic effects of #Covid19: econ.cam.ac.uk/research/cwpe-… 1/n Image
Key challenges with the empirical #economic analysis of #Covid19 include the following: how to identify the shock, how to account for its non-linear effects, & how to quantify its effects while accounting for spillovers, common global factors, network effects and uncertainty. 2/n
We contribute to the literature by addressing these issues in a coherent multi-country framework. We offer an identification strategy for the #Covid19 shock considering that a synthetic control method cannot be applied in the context of a global #pandemic. 3/n

Like my friend Thomas, I keep getting sent articles about our teaching @Cambridge_Uni next academic year and people emailing to ask about the articles, please don’t jump to conclusions! 1/n
Sorry, started the thread and then had to go back to #homeschooling, but back now 😀 2/n
First of all this about large scale lectures. They will be online. But surely all other universities will do the same?! 3/n

Just had our first virtual International #Iranian Economic Association (IIEA) Board Meeting. Great to connect with Board members from #Virginia, #Ohio, #Massachusetts, #Germany, #Qatar, #NewJersey, #California & the #UK. Look out for interesting #IIEA webinars soon. ImageImage
Due to the novel #coronavirus (#COVID19) pandemic , the IIEA Board has reluctantly decided to postpone the Seventh International Conference on #Iran’s Economy (#IIEA2020) originally planned to be held at the Middle Eastern Studies Department, @CHSS_HBKU, @HBKU. #اقتصاد #ایران
In due course, we shall issue a new call for papers for the Seventh International Conference on #Iran’s Economy, which is planned to be held in 2021 (#IIEA2021). #اقتصاد #ایران Image
