Laura Moretti and I wrote something on the macroeconomic effects of borrower-based macroprudential policy across Europe.

Our work was mentioned in this year's Cantillon Lecture delivered by Deputy Governor Vasileios Madouros.

Could Italy allocate a portion of its remaining NextGen funds to offer Harvard to relocate there, while retaining its tax-exempt status? Sounds like a sure bet to boost potential output and long-run growth.

On my way to Dublin, where I will be discussing a very interesting paper on the positive neutral countercyclical capital buffer.
As usual in my discussions, I’ll bring on the memes.
Only 2 more weeks until the Central Bank of Ireland - University College Dublin Workshop in Macro-Finance I had the honour to organise together with Oana Peia and Fergal McCann

I really hope we can make this an annual event. Stay tuned for the CfP in June 2025!

Hi #EconSky,

Not sure if the Starter Pack party's over, but I've made an Econ Starter Pack of Starter Packs! 😄
It's a work in progress, so I may have missed some. Let me know if there's anything to add—DMs are open!
Thanks for support @economista.bsky.social!
