Valentín Alvarez

PhD candidate in Economics, University of Siena

I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Economics at the University of Siena. My research is in open-economy macroeconomics, with a focus on monetary policy, exchange rate dynamics and international capital flows, often applied to Latin America.

Before Siena, I worked for five years at the United Nations’ Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), on macroeconomics, economic development and data science. I hold a Master’s in Economic Development from the National University of San Martín (UNSAM) and a Licentiate in Economics from the University of Buenos Aires (UBA), where I have also taught since 2018.
