The Econometrics group at CEMFI is at the forefront of research in econometrics. The group’s research covers several fields, including panel data econometrics, time series, financial econometrics, among others. The group has made significant contributions to the literature on panel data models, Two-Way-Fixed-Effects models, Synthetic Control Methods, and Time Series applied to Asset prices.
Members of the group are affiliated with other research centers and networks, such as the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR), have been recognized with several prizes and distinctions and they hold multiple grants from Spanish funding agencies and private institutions.We invite you to learn more about the Econometrics group at CEMFI below.
