Welcome!
I’m a PhD candidate at Humboldt University and the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW Berlin). My work is focused on international capital flows, offshore finance, and international taxation as well as applied econometrics with a focus on model uncertainty. In my job market paper, I investigate the role offshore financial centers play in the internationalf financial system. My results suggest that, contrary to their claims, they do not provide significant financial services locally but are rather used as booking destinations from abroad.
During my PhD, I supervised master theses and taught at Humboldt University Berlin as well as at the Hertie School of Governance. I had the opportunity to visit the International Monetary Fund as a visiting scholar twice as well as the University of Copenhagens Center for Economic Behaviour and Inequality.
