I am a senior economist at the Bank of Canada. At the Bank of Canada my research focusses on empirical research in financial markets. I specifically concentrate on studying extreme events through extreme value theory (EVT). Furthermore, I focus on the information structure of OTC markets. In further ongoing research I study the effect of monetary policy on the market quality in bond markets via the securities lending market. For a more extended overview of my working papers and work in progress I refer you to the research section or my resume here (CV).

I am currently affiliated with the Bank of Canada and to the LSE/Systemic Risk Centre (SRC).
