Welcome to my personal website. I am a financial economist working at the intersection of research and policy. At the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) I lead the BIS’s contributions to the G20 and the Financial Stability Board (FSB). I joined the BIS in late 2022, initially in the Financial Markets Unit.
Before the BIS, I spent over two years at the FSB Secretariat working on non-bank financial intermediation, and about ten years at the UK Financial Conduct Authority in the Chief Economist’s Department. I also served as vice-chair of the IOSCO Committee on Emerging Risks.
My research has appeared in journals including the Quarterly Journal of Economics, the Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control and the Journal of Banking & Finance. On this site you can find my published research, working papers and policy publications.
