I am a political economist researching the changing dynamics of financial globalisation and its impact on the norms, institutions and power dynamics that underpin the global economy. My main focus is thereby China’s economic rise and other post-crisis transformation of the global financial system.
Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at Goethe University Frankfurt and the Principal Investigator of the DFG-funded StateCapFinance research project. Building on the notion that capital markets are not uniform but influenced by their institutional environment, this project explores whether capital markets in emerging markets function differently, fulfil different socio-economic roles, and lead to different societal outcomes than ‘global’ capital markets.
Previously, I was an IRC Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the SCRIPTS Centre of Excellence , Lecturer at Freie Universität Berlin as well as an ESRC Doctoral Research Fellow and PhD Candidate in International Political Economy at the University of Warwick . In my PhD project, I researched the development and organisation of Chinese capital markets, focusing on the role that (stock and derivative) exchanges and financial infrastructures play as crucial actors in processes of capital market development.
