I am a Principal Economist in the International Financial Stability Section at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Before joining the Board, I received a Ph.D. in Finance from Tilburg University in the Netherlands.
My research interests lie in the microstructure of decentralized over-the-counter (OTC) bond markets. My papers focus on liquidity, trading frictions, and dealer intermediation. In particular, I study bond dealers in their role as liquidity providers and their interactions with nonbank financial institutions.
In my policy work, I monitor financial stability across global debt, equity, and currency markets, with a focus on credit and funding risks and their potential transmission to U.S. markets.
