Alan Moreira
I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where I acquired my passion for economics and finance living through the (ultimately successful) monetarist experiments to conquest the Brazilian inflation. Currently, I'm an associate professor of finance at University of Rochester Simon Graduate School of Business. From July 2011 to June 2017, I was an assistant professor of finance at Yale University Yale School of Management. I did my PhD in Financial Economics at the University of Chicago, graduating in 2011, and my undergraduate and master studies back in Brazil at the Rio de Janeiro Federal University and PUC-RJ respectively. I do research to understand how asset prices, financial intermediation, and the macroeconomy are related.
