The program celebrates Dr. Makin’s numerous contributions to economic research and policy as a scholar at AEI, a university professor, a chief economist and hedge fund principal on Wall Street, and a consultant to the US Treasury Department, the Congressional Budget Office, and the International Monetary Fund. During his more than 30 years at AEI, Dr. Makin wrote numerous books and articles on financial and monetary policy, including the widely read monthly Economic Outlook, which paired insightful research with current economic topics.
