We analysed thousands of essays written by children in 1969 to study what determines how strongly girls conform with gender norms, and what the consequences are for later-life outcomes. Find out more below!
Written jointly with the amazing @cormacodea, @sree_ayyar & Eric French.

@Cercle_eco @agnesbq1 @alexandraroulet Bel episode. Seul bémol: pourquoi appeler l'étudiant (par ailleurs très bon dans l'exercice) uniquement par son prénom?

[Jean Pisani-Ferry @pisaniferry]

The English version of my report to the French PM (joint with ⁦@Selma_Mahfouz⁩) on the economic implications of the transition to Net Zero is now available on ⁦@Strategie_Gouv⁩. We look forward to important debates! https://t.co/z8BPfbO1Dj

One of the most striking charts from our paper imo is this one:

The vast majority of Economics PhDs at top-ranked programs have a parent with a *graduate* degree - particularly among the American students.

That is, we are drawing from an extremely narrow socioeconomic pool.

The 2023 Handbook of @IMFNews Facilities for Low-Income Countries is out, with everything you need to know about Fund programs in LICs (incl. on lending and debt restructuring). Happy to have made a small contribution to a humongous effort by many people.

It would be a shame (and look terrible for Europe) if the European commission proposal on fiscal rules died because of lack of consensus. In https://t.co/RhM9oPc4M5 Jeromin Zettelmeyer and I try to find a common ground between the German "non paper" and the original proposal.

[Sander Tordoir @SanderTordoir]

🆕paper: as Brussels and Berlin battle over #fiscalrules, there is a risk that the #EU repeats past mistakes. Together with @jasperhvandijk and @VJZiesemer we propose stronger and more politically savvy enforcement mechanisms to solve the trade-offs. https://t.co/i8gbuPpZ0G

[Sander Tordoir @SanderTordoir]

Independent fiscal watchdogs such as the UK's @OBR_UK can play a role in evaluating policy and providing technical analysis, even if they cannot be enforcers. Their quality varies widely across Europe. The EU should provide a funding base to help them across the continent.

[Jason Furman @jasonfurman]

Excellent read stepping back and trying to make sense of the current economic situation.

[Natasha Sarin @NatashaRSarin]

But since crisis stress tests have proven...not all that stressful.

Here are scenarios look last few years. All ~identical, Great Recession style downturn. Interest rate risk never stressed.

Banks have been taught to the test, and they know how to ace it (and hide problems)

The IMF and the World Bank actually did a good job of maintaining the net flow of funds to poorer countries during the pandemic -- there wasn't a financial crunch in 2020 or 2021 as a result.

[Sander Tordoir @SanderTordoir]

/1.Big day in EU economic policy: the @eu_commission just published its proposal for a reform of the EU fiscal rules. Here is what it says and what it means (see: https://t.co/3VMMHj5DAB)

Really delighted that @jzettelmeyer will succeed me in September as @Bruegel_org director. Jeromin is an outstanding economist, an experienced policy maker and a long-standing friend of Bruegel. I am sure he will successfully lead Bruegel in the next phase.
