Thore Kockerols
I am a macroeconomist by training with experience in central banking and academic research.
Currently seconded to the European Central Bank, I previously worked as a senior economist in the modelling unit at Norges Bank.
I hold a PhD in Economics (2018) from the Université Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne, and my research interests include macroeconomic modelling, and macro-financial linkages.

The goal of MacroModelling.jl is to reduce coding time and speed up model development by providing functions for working with discrete-time DSGE models.
These kinds of models describe the behavior of a macroeconomy and are particularly suited for counterfactual analysis (economic policy evaluation) and exploring / quantifying specific mechanisms (academic research). Due to the complexity of these models, efficient numerical tools are required, as analytical solutions are often unavailable.
