About Me

Yulius Pratomo is an International Macroeconomist whose research centers on Global Macroeconomic Architecture and Spillover. His work examines how macroeconomic policies in major developed economies shape the distribution of gains, risks, and vulnerabilities across developing countries within the global economic system. His research agenda seeks to understand a fundamental question: How do macroeconomic policy decisions in major economies structure the distribution of advantage and vulnerability in the global economy? Positioned at the intersection of international macroeconomics and international trade, his work combines theoretical modeling and empirical analysis to study policy divergence, transmission mechanisms, trade balance dynamics, capital flows, exchange rate adjustments, and systemic asymmetries in the international monetary system. Rather than viewing global shocks as isolated events, his research conceptualizes them as features embedded in the architecture of the global macroeconomic system. Over the long term, his work seeks to contribute to a systemic understanding of how global macroeconomic structures generate persistent asymmetries between core and peripheral economies.
