He has also acted as an academic adviser to HM Treasury, the Bank of England and many policy-making institutions around the world. His main interests lie in macroeconomics, with a particular focus on monetary issues. Professor Chadha has been at the University of Kent since 2007, where holds the position of Professor and Chair in Money and Banking at the Department of Economics and is a Visiting Professor at the University of Cambridge. He is also Chair of the Money, Macro and Finance Research Group and a specialist adviser to the Treasury Committee.

Professor Chadha will be delivering six lectures on the macroeconomic puzzles caused by the difference between economic theory and practice. From the Carry Trade to the Equity Premium, these real world phenomena are discussed and dissected to see what we might need to add to the theory and how we might improve our understanding. These talks are sure to delight the enthusiast and the student of economics alike.
