SBRANA Giacomo

Post-Doctorate in Econometrics

Giacomo SBRANA est Professeur à NEOMA Business School depuis 2019. Il a rejoint l'école en tant que professeur assistant en août 2011 et est devenu professeur associé en 2014. Avant de rejoindre NEOMA, de 2005 à 2009, il a travaillé comme expert associé au Département économique et social Affaires des Nations Unies à New York (USA).

Giacomo est titulaire d'un M.Sc. en économie et économétrie de l'Université de Southampton (obtenu en 2003), un doctorat en statistique de l'Université de Rome TRE (obtenu en 2004) et un postdoc au BETA, Université de Strasbourg (de 2009 à 2011).

Il enseigne plusieurs cours de méthodes quantitatives et de programmation avec R au niveau undergraduate (programme PGE) et postgraduate (MSc et doctorat).

Ses principaux intérêts de recherche comprennent l'analyse et la prévision de séries temporelles, en particulier à l'aide de modèles state-space et du filtre de Kalman. Il a publié dans plusieurs revues académiques telles que: International Journal of Production Economics, Journal of Banking & Finance, International Journal of Forecasting, Macroeconomic Dynamics, Cliometrica, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Economic Modeling, Journal of Time Series Analysis, Journal of Prévisions, Journal of Multivariate Analysis, Bulletin of Economic Research
