Monica Barbosa

I am a PhD student in the Joint Program in Financial Economics at the University of Chicago. I study how asset prices are shaped by governments and institutional investors, with a focus on fixed income markets. 

Previously, I worked as a research assistant at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. I have a B.A. in Economics and Mathematics from Yale University.

In 2026, I was the recipient of the Yiran Fan Memorial Prize.
