Research:  

Dr. Ahmad's major field of reseach lies in monetary economics. He also has research interests that lie in the area of international macroeconomics, heterogenous agent models, and in particular sticky price/wage models. He has published the results of his research in the Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance, and is currently working on several research projects.

Broadly speaking, much of Dr. Ahmad's current research involves the transmission mechanism of monetary policy, and in trying to identify channels by which monetary policy shocks impact the economy. His work also includes trying to find tractable means of incorporating heterogeneity into the existing representative agent framework.
