Welcome!
My name is Kristy Jansen, Assistant Professor of Finance and Business Economics at USC Marshall, a Research Affiliate at CEPR, and external researcher at the Dutch Central Bank.*
My research interests are non-bank financial intermediation, asset pricing, and macro-finance. Specifically, I aim to understand the drivers of institutional investors’ asset demand and the role they play in financial markets. A central focus of my recent work is how asset demand—and the influence of policy interventions—affect U.S. and global Treasury market dynamics.
Additionally, I study pension funds as a specific class of institutional investors, focusing on how increasing cash constraints shape their asset demand and feed back into financial markets.
Upcoming events: IPC Current Issues in Alternatives NYC Symposium, 11th International Pension Research Association (IPRA) Conference, Hong Kong University (seminar), City University of Hong Kong (Hong Kong, seminar), and City University Hong Kong (Shenzhen, seminar), Joint Inquire U.K./Europe Conference, HBS Junior Finance Conference.
