Susanna Saroyan

Profile

Susanna is a Research Scientist at the University of Luxembourg, and an Associate Research Fellow at the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment and the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the Oxford Martin School. She leads research on the complex dynamics between financial systems and the real economy.

Using empirical analysis, structural stress-testing, and supply-chain modeling tools, she addresses the impact of climate transition and physical risks on financial stability, the effectiveness and coherence of micro- and macro-prudential standards in facing new challenges such as climate change or the growing interdependence between banks and non-bank financial intermediaries, and the ongoing transformation of financial markets.

Susanna holds a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Toulouse and was awarded a prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship at the University of Zurich. Her policy-relevant research spans financial stability, climate risks, prudential policy reforms, money market functioning, benchmark interest rates, sovereign debt risk, stress testing, and central banks' supervisory and monetary interventions. She is an Academic Visitor at the Bank of England and is involved in research and policy projects with central banks worldwide.
