The Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) was founded in 1983 to enhance the quality of economic policy-making within Europe and beyond, by fostering high quality, policy-relevant economic research, and disseminating it widely to decision-makers in the public and private sectors. Today, CEPR’s network of Research Fellows and Affiliates includes over 1,300 of the top economists conducting research on issues affecting the European economy.
Based in London, the CEPR is actively seeking to provide regional platforms on the continent for CEPR Researchers and to deepen its ties in local academic and policy communities.
Philippe MARTIN is Professor of Economics and former Chair of the Department, as well as Chair of the Council of Economic Analysis of the French Prime Minister and the Minister of Economy and Finance since 2018.
