Personal statement

Sharada Davidson is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in the Department of Economics at the University of Strathclyde in Scotland.  She is very happy to discuss possible collaborations with partners in policy and other disciplines. 

Sharada's work involves using Bayesian macroeconometric techniques to understand issues in international macroeconomics, international finance and central banking with a focus on developing and emerging economies.  Sharada is also a D-Econ member with a particular interest in understanding which additional steps need to be taken to analyse developing and emerging economies using recently developed (Bayesian) time series methods.  

Sharada has worked as a Consultant for the European Central Bank, using Bayesian methods to analyse the nonlinear effects of changes in banks' vulnerability to capital depletion.  

Sharada is also affiliated with the Fraser of Allander Institute undertaking projects involving economic measurement and statistics.  She is a Research Associate with the Economic Statistics Centre of Excellence funded by the UK's Office for National Statistics.  Sharada has led work appraising the UK's subnational socioeconomic indicators and delivered projects on interregional trade and regional supply and use tables. 

Further information about Sharada's research, teaching and client-based work can be found on her website
