Thesis title: "Asset Price Bubbles and Macroeconomic Policies"

My PhD is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC).
Brief Synopsis of my Thesis:
Asset price bubbles have been affecting economies with ‘modern’ financial systems for at least 400 years. While it is clear that asset price bubbles emerge because the current owners of the asset believe they can resell the asset at a higher price than the one that they bought, it is still ambiguous which measures need to be adopted to deflate or limit the impact of these bubbles. Since bursting bubbles may lead to financial crises, it is crucial to make clarifications and policy recommendations on how to deal with asset price bubbles.
