演讲嘉宾介绍:
Graham Voss is a professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Victoria. He has a BA (Honours) from the University of Victoria, an MA from McMaster University and a PhD from Queen’s University.
He began his academic career in 1991 at the University of New South Wales, Australia where he taught until 1998. He then joined the Research Department at the Reserve Bank of Australia as a senior economist where he worked until joining the University of Victoria in 2001.
Graham's principal area of research is applied macroeconomics with a focus on monetary and fiscal policies and exchange rates. Much of his work involves either assessments of macroeconomic policies or empirical modelling of macroeconomic behaviour. This work has generated numerous grants both here and in Australia and has been published in international journals.
He has also worked directly with private sector and government organizations both here and in Australia on policy related matters such as public infrastructure spending, public accounts, and the interdependence of the Canadian and US economies. Recent research interests have focused on inflation targeting and the trade-offs pursued by central banks between inflation and economic activity.
