Short bio

Justin S. Eloriaga is an Economist at the International Monetary Fund’s Shanghai Center (国际货币基金组织上海中心), the Fund’s regional hub for the Asia-Pacific, which promotes applied policy research on questions facing emerging market and middle-income economies and serves as a venue for policy dialogue and knowledge exchange across the region.

He holds a Ph.D. in Economics from Emory University, completed under the auspices of the J. William Fulbright Scholarship. Before Emory he graduated summa cum laude with a B.Sc. in Applied Economics and an M.Sc. in Economics from De La Salle University, completing the ladderized degree in the fastest time recorded.

His research is in macroeconomics, with a focus on Bayesian time-series econometrics and monetary economics. Recent work identifies Fed information shocks episode by episode from the narrative record, replaces hard identifying restrictions with narrative ones in oil-market and monetary VARs, and studies how monetary policy, trade, and energy constraints propagate across Asia.

He is an Associate Editor at the DLSU Business & Economics Review. Before joining the Fund he was a Visiting Instructor at Emory University’s Department of Data and Decision Sciences, an Assistant Professorial Lecturer at De La Salle University, and a Central Bank Associate at the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.
