Philip Fliegel
“I am an empirically working financial economist. I use econometric methods and experiments to obtain new insights about the measurement, pricing, ownership and political economy of environmental transition risks. I obtained a PhD from Humboldt University and have an affiliation with the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and a scholarship from the German Academic Scholarship Foundation.”
