Welcome to my webpage!
I am a Research Fellow at the IMD Global Board Center. My research sheds light on what constitutes good and effective governance, with a focus in the investment industry. While corporate boards often don’t give sufficient thought to geopolitical risks, social change, and the long-term instability of the world, investment boards do. My research therefore has practical implications, particularly for fund managers and asset allocators, with knock-on effects for corporate boards.
Before joining IMD, I worked at the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs as an economist. Prior to that, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and taught at EPFL and at the University of Lausanne. I graduated with a Ph.D. from the University of Lausanne, and I was a visiting doctoral student at SciencesPo Paris.
