Lukas Diebold

Lukas Diebold is an Assistant Professor of Finance at Charles III University of Madrid (UC3M), conducting research at the intersection of macro-finance, financial history, and international finance with emphasis on historical financial systems and contemporary capital flow dynamics.

His research program integrates three core domains: macro-finance analyzing global shock transmission to domestic economies, financial history focused on interwar-period systemic structures, and international finance examining cross-border capital movements. Recent work investigates causal links between foreign capital inflows and household credit expansion cycles, leveraging historical data to inform modern financial stability frameworks.

Dr. Diebold's scholarly impact is reflected in his publication pipeline and awards:

• Shortlisted for the World Economic History Congress 2025 Dissertation Prize
• Recipient of the Joachim Herz Foundation's Add-on Fellowship for Interdisciplinary Economics
• Awarded UC3M's competitive New Researcher Grant (Jovenes Doctores)

His funded research projects explore the interwar international financial system's parallels to modern emerging markets, combining archival historical analysis with quantitative macro-finance methodologies to address policy-relevant questions in global credit markets and financial stability.
