Climate, fiscal policy and finance

I am an economist working on climate, fiscal policy and finance. I work on carbon pricing policy design, sustainability-linked sovereign lending, and country-level fiscal and climate policy engagements across Europe, Africa and Asia. I hold master’s degrees in philosophy, economics and physics.

Research

The research is in two parts.

Policy and Finance has four sections: carbon pricing in open economies; other tax and fiscal policy; finance and risk for clean power; and sovereign incentives for national climate policy. Most papers come with slides and a short policy brief.

Modelling and Analytics outlines analytics tools for climate-fiscal work.

The whole portfolio is summarized in one slide deck, one slide per paper with a divider for each section: Slides (pdf) →

My work sits where climate, fiscal and financial policy meet:

• Effective carbon pricing: measuring the total effective carbon price across direct and indirect policy instruments
• Carbon pricing in open economies: feebates, destination carbon taxes through VAT, and border adjustments
• Sustainability-linked finance: the operational architecture of sustainability-linked sovereign lending
