Postdoctoral Researcher in Financial Economics

Vor 6 Tagen

Halle Saale, Deutschland Halle Institute for Economic Research (IWH) - Member of the Leibniz Association Vollzeit

**At the IWH**

Researchers at the Financial Markets department study economic mechanisms by which financial systems, institutions, and markets route savings to investors. By using microeconometric methods that are grounded in financial economic theory, our research is focused on three main areas: First, the analysis of how banks and other financial institutions overcome information frictions in conducting their intermediation function. Second, how households and firms optimise savings, investment, and capital structure decisions conditional on the governance environment they face. Third, the determinants of financial system regulation and its effects on agents’ choices in both financial markets and the real economy, such as the inception of the European Banking Union or “Green” stress tests. We seek to answer these questions in close collaborations with fellow academics and policy makers, central bankers from across the globe, and other NGO.

**What we offer**

The Halle Institute for Economic Research is closely linked with the national and international scientific community. We offer a vibrant, international research environment, light non-research duties, an outstanding database infrastructure, an active seminar culture, and generous research support.
