@Florian_Scheuer Thanks Florian! Great to read that from you, someone who put in the effort to appy and experienced the benefit of receiving an ERCStG just a few years back. And congrats to you for being elected SAET Economic Theory Fellow!
Received an #ERCStG to advance comp methods for stochastic OLG models with applications to public debt and pension reform. Focus on intergenerational risk-sharing and welfare. DM me if interested in PhD/Postdoc doing #FrontierResearch on comp methods and macro public finance.

Welfare effects of pub debt not quite as suggested in Blanchard 2019 (see our Sec 4), more subtle in open econ (5), and, admittedly, also not as simple as in our simple model (6). Still a lot to explore! Working on it

Thanks to my great co-authors Xiangyu Feng, @Kotlikoff, and @FelixKubler.
Low government interest rates likely reflect a lack of proper risk-sharing and are not a signal that deficit finance is free, from @BrummJohannes, Xiangyu Feng, @kotlikoff, and @felixkubler https://t.co/UBGHWs92HC
@makro_philip Philip, if we cannot do random testing, wastewater might do the trick and provide the data needed to capture regional variation.
