Economics Expert

Dany Bahar’s research sits at the intersection of international economics, the geopolitical landscape, and economic development. Specifically, his academic research focuses on the diffusion of technology and knowledge within and across borders. Among other factors, he measures this diffusion by productivity, structural transformation, exports, entrepreneurship, and innovation.

Lately, his research has focused on migrants and refugees as drivers of this process and, more broadly, on the benefits that migrants and refugees bring to both their countries of origin and destination. In fact, his academic work has been published in top economic journals, and he often contributes to leading media outlets in the United States and around the globe. He also produces and hosts the podcast Economists on Zoom Getting Coffee.

Hire Dany Bahar

Dany’s expertise on policy issues includes structural transformation policies, trade policies, integration of immigrants and refugees in local economies, productivity dynamics, and, in general, issues related to globalization. He also analyzes and closely follows political and economic trends in Latin America and the Middle East (particularly, Israel and its neighbors). In 2019, he participated in a task force of independent experts convened by the secretary general of the Organization of American States to recommend regional actions on the Venezuelan migration and refugee crisis.

Dany Bahar is perfect for organizations looking to hire economics-focused keynotes and non-partisan geopolitical discussions.
