Enrico Camillo Perotti (born May 16, 1959) is a Dutch (Italian born) economist and Professor of International Finance at the University of Amsterdam since 1994.[1] His research contributions span many fields such as (central) banking, corporate finance, political economy, redistributive growth, legal and financial history. His current research focuses on banking theory and financial regulation in a context of financial stagnation and a structural demand for safety. He has served as advisor for the European Commission, World Bank, IMF, Bank of England, Federal Reserve Bank, De Nederlandsche Bank and European Central Bank, and was member from 2020 to 2024 of the Advisory Scientific Committee of the General Board of the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB).[2] Furthermore, Perotti has been appointed senior advisor to DNB Board in 2024.[3]
Education and academic career
[edit]Perotti was born in Asti, Italy and grew up in Milan. He attended the classical gymnasium at Liceo Zucchi in Monza, Italy. He graduated in Discipline Economiche e Sociali from Università Bocconi, Milan, and won a MIT scholarship for a PhD in Finance at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he completed his doctoral studies in 1990 under the supervision of Franco Modigliani and Jean Tirole.[4] He taught in 1989-1994 at Boston University's Graduate School of Management [1] and has held various visiting appointments at MIT, Harvard, Oxford, Columbia Business School, London Business School, New York Federal Reserve and the LSE.[5]
Contributions
[edit]Enrico Perotti’s work has ranged widely, mostly seeking novel theoretical insight. His MIT theoretical dissertation combined models of privatization, crossholding networks, the Japanese Keiretsu groups and the dynamics of asset pricing under political risk.[6] His first publication in American Economic Review concerned the strategic use of leverage in contract renegotiation.[7] Early in his career he became involved in research and policy advice on the financial transition in Eastern Europe and Russia, serving as advisor to the EC, World Bank and IMF. He published in top journals (AER, JPE) on the historical and political foundations of corporate governance, financial development, pension funding and privatization, jointly with Ernst-Ludwig von Thadden, Bruno Biais and Stijn Claessens.[8][9] Parallel interests included models of correlated risk taking (EER), the evolution of legal institutions (in particular, the emergence of the corporate form JLEO) and the internal and financial structure of innovative firms (MgtScience, RandJE).[10][11] Since the 2007–2008 financial crisis he has focused on (central) banking and financial regulation, proposing in an article with Javier Suárez (economist) the use of Pigouvian charges to target aggregate liquidity externality.[12] He served in 2010-12 as senior advisor at the Dutch Central Bank (DNB) and Hublon-Norman Fellow at the Bank of England, and was involved in advising EU legislation on capital requirements in banking and insurance. As Duisenberg Fellow he served as advisor to the ECB on macroprudential tools during the introduction of the EU Banking Union.[13] Upon full return to academia he focused on a new advanced curriculum in (central) banking and financial regulation, supervising PhD candidates and publishing theoretical work on excess credit cycles, financial stagnation, tail risk incentives, contingent convertible capital, suspension of convertibility, regulatory forbearance and the containment of bank runs.[14][15][16][17]
In 2020 he joined the ESRB Advisory Scientific Board, contributing to work on long term credit trends and policy options for uninsured runs.[18] In 2024 he returned as senior advisor for financial stability at DNB.[19]
He is currently working on financial resilience, demand for safety and the political economy of climate policy. He is an active contributor to VoxEU and to the CEPR webinar, policy and discussion paper series.[20]
