Matilde Faralli PhD candidate in Finance

I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Bologna with a B.A. in Business and Economics (CLABE) and an M.A. in Economics (LMEC).

During my undergraduate studies, I spent one semester at the University of Bologna's campus in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

In the second year of my master, I spent one semester at the University of California, Berkeley.

After that, I interned in the Monetary Policy Research Department of the European Central Bank.

I started my PhD at Imperial College London in September 2020.

In Summer 2021, I was a research intern at the Bank of Italy in Rome, after being shortlisted as "particularly deserving" by the Bank of Italy's Mortara Scholarship.

Since September 2021, I have been part of the London Interdisciplinary Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (LISS DTP).

In Spring 2023, I was a visiting PhD student at Berkeley Haas, sponsored by Ulrike Malmendier.

Outside of research, I'm a passionate skier, hiker, runner (completed my first Half Marathon in Lisbon 2024), boulderer, and modern art enthusiast.
