Thomas M. Rowley
Welcome.
I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute for European Policymaking at Bocconi University. I received my PhD in Economics from ESSEC Business School and CY Cergy Paris University.
My research focuses on international trade and corporate finance, particularly how firms respond to globalization, policy interventions, and economic shocks. I study comparative advantage, foreign direct investment, firm productivity, financial constraints, supply-chain resilience, and the links between trade, finance, and environmental regulation.
I also work on European economic policy, focusing on industrial competitiveness, strategic dependencies, innovation finance, and responses to geopolitical challenges.
