معرفی
Agathe Pernoud is an Assistant Professor of Economics and Biehler Junior Faculty Fellow at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business. Previously, she served as a Saieh Family Fellow at the Becker Friedman Institute. Her research focuses on microeconomic theory, financial networks, and systemic risk. She holds affiliations with the Becker Friedman Institute and the Booth School of Business.
Her academic work explores mechanisms shaping information acquisition in economic systems, optimal regulatory responses to financial crises, and communication strategies under model misspecification. Key contributions include analyzing dictatorial mechanisms in informationally simple settings and demonstrating how credit freezes create multiplicity in financial equilibria.
Her research has been recognized with awards including the Claire and Ralph Landau Prize (2023) and the Finance Theory Group Best Job Market Paper Award (2023). She collaborates frequently with co-authors like Matthew Jackson and Simon Gleyze, addressing topics such as second-price auction dynamics and regulatory design in core-periphery financial networks.
Agathe's research also bridges theoretical frameworks with practical policy implications, particularly in systemic risk measurement and optimal bailout strategies. Her work on financial network structures has advanced understanding of indirect bailout efficiencies and asymmetric regulatory approaches in banking systems.
