Presentation

My research focuses on pension reform assessments, issues relating to economic inequality and questions relating to income. Recently I have studied the impact of the rising retirement age and the partial old-age pension. I make use of both register and survey data. My competencies also include measuring poverty and deprivation.

Ongoing research projects
