Matteo Bondesan

Research Fellow and PhD Candidate; Doctoral Fellow

University of Turin and Collegio Carlo Alberto

I am a Research Fellow and Ph.D. Candidate at the University of Turin (ESOMAS Department) and a Doctoral Fellow at the Collegio Carlo Alberto. My research interests include climate economics, quantitative macroeconomics and macroeconometrics to study the transmission mechanism of monetary and fiscal policy with non-anchored expectations and heterogeneous agents using HANK-, DSGE- and VAR-type modelling. I am grateful to my advisors, Fabio-Cesare Bagliano and Luca Gambetti, for close cooperation. Recently, I studied the effect of introducing bounded rationality, in the form of adaptive learning, within a one-asset HANK framework in continuous time to shed light on how individual and aggregate behaviors change moving beyond FIRE.

My current empirical research agenda builds around the following question: do households in the Euro area behave according to a non-anchored expectations system in their consumption/investment optimal decisions?

On the policy side, I have collaborated with international organizations (e.g. IOSCO, ECB, and EIB) to study the policy implications of regulatory changes.

Please, have a look at my curriculum vitae or résumé.

Shale Gas, la rivoluzione grigia a stelle e strisce (Italian)
Quadrante Futuro, Centro di Ricerca e Documentazione Luigi Einaudi, Ersel, 2014, Torino, Italy. […] L’esistenza di ingenti depositi di shale nel sottosuolo americano rappresenta condizione necessaria ma non sufficiente all’ epifania della “rivoluzione grigia” dato che depositi di simile capacità sono presenti anche in altre nazioni. Un’intera decade caratterizzata da prezzi crescenti sia per il petrolio che per il gas, ha dato avvio al processo concorrenziale che si è concretizzato in innovazione; il ben noto processo “schumpeteriano” si sviluppa partendo da condizioni di mercato, dove gli alti prezzi incentivano la concorrenza che a sua volta innesca l’innovazione. L’innovatore di base è il giocatore che muove per primo, ma una schiera di innovatori seguaci (followers) si affrettano nel copiare il primo cercando di migliorare la nuova tecnologia in termini di efficienza. Se ci fermassimo qui, racconteremmo solo metà della storia, infatti l’ imprenditore schumpeteriano parte da una situazione di equilibrio, distrutta proprio dalla sua idea folgorante (i.e. innovazione di base) che apre le porte ad un periodo caratterizzato da uno shock positivo in termini innovativi che porta al raggiungimento di un nuovo trend, posto ad un più alto livello di innovazione tecnologica. Esattamente a questo punto, di disequilibrio, entra in scena un nuovo attore, l’imprenditore “kirzneriano”, abbastanza sensibile ed attento (il termine inglese è “alert”) da individuare opportunità di latente domanda insoddisfatta, che egli cerca di colmare atttraverso la sua idea luminosa, che si concretizza tramite un insieme di innovazioni incrementali, che sostengono e promuovono lo shock tecnologico prodotto dalla prima tipologia di imprenditore. Infatti la qualità delle istituzioni, la loro affidabilità ed una struttura di mercati finanziari efficienti capaci di fornire i fondi necessari al fine di rendere effettive le nuove idee imprenditoriali, sono caratteristiche essenziali per rendere un Paese fertile ed attraente per nuovi investimenti, scatenando così rivoluzioni economiche silenziose […]
