Research - Monetary Economics

Diemo Dietrich’s profile on Ideas

Primary research interests lie in the areas of Financial Stability, Banking & Banking Regulation, (digital) Currencies, and Corporate Finance. We use ideas primarily from information economics and game theory (e.g., contracts, coordination games, cheap talk) as well as dynamic macroeconomics (overlapping generations economies).

The current research focuses on liquidity creation by banks and aims at gaining a better understanding of its macroeconomic and policy implications.

Themes

• Effects of regulating bank liquidity and bank capital on bank behaviour and corporate investment
• Implications of financial frictions for aggregate credit supply and financial stability
• Monetary policy in the presence of financial frictions
• Boundaries of the firm arising from frictions in financial contracting
