DIEGO CALDERON

Diego Calderon Economist Warwick IMF

WELCOME!

I am an Economist (EP) at the Western Hemisphere Department of the International Monetary Fund.

I am a macroeconomist interested in macroeconomic theory, international economics, and dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models. My work focuses on the theory and application of multiple equilibria in macroeconomics. My research emphasizes the importance of beliefs as an independent driver of macroeconomic outcomes.

In my job market paper, I study an open economy general equilibrium model where transitory shocks can generate permanent effects on economic welfare in the presence of self-fulfilling beliefs.

I completed my PhD in Economics from the University of Warwick. Prior to coming to Warwick, I received an MSc in Economic Analysis and a BA in Economics from the University of Chile.

Research Fields:
Macroeconomics, International Economics, Economic Theory.
