Research areas
Vivek is a macroeconomist and former central bank economist. He is interested in understanding how the presence of financial frictions affects the outcome of macroeconomic policy, as well as the appropriate policy response to financial shocks in the presence of such frictions. He is particularly interested in large-scale asset purchase programmes (such as quantitative easing) and fiscal policy. His work is theoretical and is formulated within dynamic general equilibrium models.
