The Laboratory for Aggregate Economics and Finance

Est. July 2005

The Laboratory for Aggregate Economics and Finance (LAEF) was established in July 2005 to address important questions on growth and fluctuations in national, or aggregate, economies. LAEF is directed by Professor Finn Kydland, Jeffrey Henley Professor of Economics, and is located in a suite of offices in the vicinity of the Economics Department. Five leading macroeconomists from outside UCSB serve as advisors to LAEF, their charge being the identification of timely economic questions, issues and/or anomalies which may be addressed in a conference or workshop setting.
