Biography

George-Marios Angeletos is a macroeconomist and applied theorist whose recent work focuses on the role of behavioral information frictions in economic analysis. His research encompasses fundamental questions regarding the validity of Welfare Theorems in the presence of such frictions and practical policy inquiries about how these frictions influence the effectiveness of optimal monetary design and forward guidance under the Zero Lower Bound (ZLB). His interests also include optimal debt management, issues surrounding deficits and finance, and the implications of incomplete markets and global games on aggregate economic outcomes. In 2023, Professor Angeletos joined Northwestern University after dedicating 22 years to the faculty at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He completed his undergraduate studies at Athens University of Economics and Business in Greece and earned his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 2001. He is a fellow of the Econometric Society, a member of the Academy of Athens, and has been the recipient of multiple grants, including from the Sloan Foundation and the National Science Foundation.
