    My research agenda in a nutshell

     

    There is mounting evidence that individual expectations on subsequent realizations of idiosyncratic risk carry significant predictive power even when other information available to an econometrician is taken into account. This suggest that individuals possess advance information on future realizations of their individual risks such as future job losses, earnings, and mortality. In my recent research, I'm working on integrating the empirical findings in quantitative-theoretical macro models to understand whether individual expectations matter, for example, for household consumption-saving decisions or for the existence of a private unemployment insurance market.
