In the context of the EMPN project, my research focuses on fiscal and monetary policy, energy and trade vulnerability, and territorial and structural divides, at both the Italian and European level.
I am also interested in designing and implementing empirical stock-flow consistent models, to be used for medium-term macroeconomic policy scenario analysis.
