My general interest area is public finance, in particular tax policy. The overall design of the tax system, tax policy in open economies, and tax policy vis-a-vis venture capital backed entrepreneurship are specific themes of interest. Beside public finance, I am interested in intertemporal macroeconomics as well as corporate finance.
