Best-Paper Award at the annual meetings organized by the European Association of Young Economists
The paper ‘Cash Transfers and Fertility: From Short to Long -run‘ by Lidia Cruces and F. Javier Rodríguez -Roman (UC3M PhDs) obtained the Best-Paper Award at the annual meetings organized by the European Association of Young Economists in Turin (6-8 September 2023. SMYE 2023).
The paper quantifies the short and long run effects of family policies on the fertility rate using the life cycle model of labor supply and fertility decisions calibrated to the Spanish Economy. The paper concludes that the coexistence of permanent and temporary labor contracts in Spain raises the costs of child-related career interruptions and depresses fertility

Florencia Airaudo finalist of the Young Economist Price ( European Central Bank)
The selected finalists will have the unique opportunity to attend the ECB Forum on Central Banking from 26 to 28 June 2023. Their research papers will be available on the ECB’s website and will be shared with all Forum participants, including policymakers, top academics and market economists from around the world.
Florencia submitted her Paper: “Exit strategies from quantitative easing: the role of the fiscal-monetary Policy mix“
“I study quantitative tightening (QT) policies in a model for the US. I find that the macroeconomic impact of QT hinges on the fiscal-monetary policy mix. QT contributes to faster disinflation but only under the appropriate fiscal framework to stabilize the public debt.”

Econometric Game 2023
Our team, consisting of Alejandro Puerta Cuartas as captain, Oleksandra Cheipesh, Andrea del Pizzo, and Vedant Bhardwaj, has made it to the final round of the competition. The following teams have also made it to the final: ENSAE, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, University of Bologna, Oxford University, University of Warsaw, Harvard University, University St. Gallen, Lund University, Vrije University, and the University of Orléans.
The top three teams in the final were Warsaw University in first place, the University of Bologna in second place, and Vrije University in third place.
This competition, which involves teams from a selection of International Universities, challenges its participants to solve a case study of Econometrics subsequently evaluated by a jury of independent and qualified professors.
The UC3M Department of Economics has won the competition three times since 2007 (the first year of participation of the Department of Economics). In 2018, the team composed by Miguel Ángel Cabello, Yuhao Li, Francisco Pareschi and Julius Vainora, won the contest ahead of Harvard and Copenhagen University teams in a competition in which 30 universities participated. The UC3M is one of the few universities that has won the award three times.
