Econometric Institute makes a mark at IAAE conference

Thirteen researchers from the Econometric Institute of Erasmus School of Economics presented papers at the International Association for Applied Econometrics (IAAE) conference in Thessaloniki, Greece. Notably, over half of the Erasmus School of Economics representatives were PhD candidates.

The main aims of IAAE are to advance the public education in the subject of econometrics and its applications to a variety of fields in economics. Erasmus School of Economics traditionally has a strong showing at the IAAE annual conference, and this year was no exception.

A number of faculty members of the Econometric Institute, including Professor Robin Lumsdaine and Assistant Professor Anastasija Tetereva, presented their research. The presented papers used state-of-the-art econometrics and machine learning tools to investigate a wide variety of topics, including cryptocurrencies (Dr Maria Grith), gender bias (Dr Eyo Herstad), large language modeling of international central bank communication (Prof. Robin Lumsdaine), inflation forecasting (Aishameriane Schmidt), asset allocation (Dr Anastasija Tetereva), and option pricing (Dr Evgenii Vladimirov). Other papers, such as those by PhD candidates Xiaomeng Zhang and Sam van Meer contained results that are useful in conducting policy evaluations. Other present researchers were Assistant Professors Rasmus L枚nn and Eoghan O鈥橬eil, and PhD candidates Simon Donker van Heel Jens Klooster.

That so many researchers from the Econometric Institute had papers accepted to this conference highlights the global reputation and scholarly leadership of Erasmus School of Economics within the field of applied econometrics. The inclusion of so many PhD candidates demonstrates the School鈥檚 commitment to its emphasis on academic excellence in the training of future generations of scholars.
