Happy to have a policy brief published by @CSIS as part of this report on ‘Managing U.S.-China Tensions over the Global Economic Order.’ I argue that there is space for cooperation in developing green infrastructure in the global South. csis.org/analysis/manag…

In my latest op-ed just out in @Enviro_Finance, Calvin Quek @clearroads and I asses what policy tools are most central in how China finances green industries. Taxonomies, disclosure, and green bonds get most attention but these are not that impactful. environmental-finance.com/content/analys…

The main driver of oil demand growth growth is the expansion of fossil-based petrochemical production, 50 % of which occurs in China🛢 Why, how, and with what implications? In this new paper, @MLundLarsen and I take on these issues. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… 1/8

I just got a PhD! On March 13th I successfully defended my PhD at Copenhagen Business School. I argue that Western countries can learn from China’s interventionist approach to steering a green transition. Download: research-api.cbs.dk/ws/portalfiles…

I'm defending my PhD on March 13th at 15 at CBS! It's an open event so feel free to drop by if you're curious about green finance in China and the state's role in financing green transition. cbs.dk/forskning/inst…

As CBS rightly points out, I have indeed just started a postdoc at Brown University's Watson Institute. There, I'll keep researching the role of the state in green transition, focusing on China and other countries outside the global North. cbs.dk/en/the-press/n…
