About Me
I am Enzo D’Innocenzo, Assistant Professor of Economics (ECON-01/A) in the Department of Economics at the University of Bologna, Italy.
I earned a degree in Statistical Sciences and completed my PhD at the University of Bologna, with a dissertation titled “Essays in Robust and Nonlinear Time Series Models.”
Following a visiting year there as a PhD candidate, I spent two postdoctoral years as a Research Associate at the School of Business and Economics, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
My research lies at the intersection of econometrics and statistics, focusing on time-series analysis, statistical inference and asymptotic theory for time-series models, score-driven models, time-series methods for option pricing, and financial econometrics.
