Biography
After obtaining his Ph.D. degree in Political Economy (1996), Sergio Rossi carried on his research work on monetary macroeconomics, and was honoured with two awards by the Committee of Vice-Chancellors and Principals of the United Kingdom for his Ph.D. degree in Economics at University College London (2000). His research interests focus on macroeconomic analysis, particularly as regards national and international monetary and financial issues. He has authored and edited many books (among them an encyclopedia of central banking), widely published in academic journals, and is regularly invited to TV and radio talk-shows discussing contemporary economic issues at national and international level. In 2012, L’Hebdo included him in the 100 most prominent persons in French-speaking Switzerland. He also features in the 2015, 2017 and 2019 rankings of the most influential economists in Switzerland established by the Neue Zürcher Zeitung.
