I am a Professor in the Department of Economics at UCL and a Research Fellow at the Institute for Fiscal Studies, where I direct the Centre for the Evaluation of Development Policies (EDePo). I am interested in modelling household behaviour in developed and developing countries and, more generally, in Applied Econometrics. In particular, my current and recent research has focused on: v Household Consumption and Saving Behaviour; v Life Cycle Behaviour; v Risk Sharing; v Housing Markets; v Evaluation and Design of Policies in Developing Countries; v Micro Credit; v Measurement Tools in Surveys. I am currently Editor of Quantitative Economics, a new journal of the Econometric Society.
