Biography
Nouriel Roubini is a Professor of Economics and International Business at New York University Stern School of Business. He received his undergraduate degree from Bocconi University in Milan, Italy, and his Ph.D. in Economics from Harvard University in 1988.
Before joining NYU Stern, Professor Roubini was a faculty member of the Economics Department at Yale University from 1988-1995. He was also the Senior Economist for International Affairs at the White House Council of Economic Advisers from 1998-1999; then, the Senior Advisor to the Under Secretary for International Affairs and the Director of the Office of Policy Development and Review at the U.S. Treasury Department from 1999- 2000. He worked on the resolution of the Asian and global financial crises of 1997-1998 and the reform of the international financial architecture after these crises, among other issues. He is also Chairman of Roubini Global Economics, an economic information and consultancy service. His views are cited regularly in the media.
Professor Roubini has been a long-time consultant to the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and other private and public institutions. He has published theoretical and empirical and policy papers on international macroeconomic issues, the Asian and global financial crisis, emerging markets and the reform of the international financial system.
He is the co-author of the book, “Political Cycles: Theory and Evidence.” His new book, “Bailouts or Bail-ins? Responding to Financial Crises in Emerging Economies,” (with Brad Setser), was published by the Institute for International Economics in 2004. A seminal contribution to the field, the book studies the currency, financial and sovereign debt crises in emerging market economies in the last decade and their resolution via policy adjustment, official/IMF “bail-out” packages and private sector involvement (“bail-ins”) in crisis resolution.
