Stephen Snudden

My primary research interests are in the fields of macroeconomics as well as international economics and finance. Much of my current work examines the determinants of income and wealth inequality. I also have ongoing research and have published in the areas of fiscal and monetary policy, international migration and remittances, and primary commodities.

I am available to supervise students on topics in global commodity markets, fiscal and monetary policy, international remittances and migration, and wealth inequality. Aside from forecasting projects, students should be prepared to utilize structurally identified econometric models, dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models, or heterogeneous agent models.
