Welcome to my profile!
About Me
I am an Associate Professor of Economics at IESEG School of Management (France), specializing in international macroeconomics and finance. My research focuses on how central banks and financial regulators address systemic financial instability, particularly in the context of climate-related risks and the transition to a low-carbon economy.
My work has been published in leading peer-reviewed journals, including Climate Policy, Ecological Economics, Economic Modelling, Ecological Indicators, International Review of Financial Analysis, Journal of Economic Methodology, Nature Scientific Reports and the Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization.
I developed the Climate-Related Financial Policy Index (CRFPI), a widely referenced tool for measuring national engagement in green financial policymaking. My current projects include:
- Assessing the exposure of banking sectors in emerging economies to climate risks.
- Designing integrated macro-financial models to study systemic risk under compound climate and pandemic shocks.
In recent years, I have provided scientific expertise to the OECD Environment Policy Committee, OECD Economics Department, GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit), the World Bank, and the South African Reserve Bank, advising on climate-related financial frameworks and sustainability-aligned policy strategies.
