Dolly Yu (于洋)
PhD Candidate in Financial Economics · Yale School of Management
I am a PhD candidate in Financial Economics at the Yale School of Management, advised by James Choi (chair), Boris Vallée, Paul Goldsmith-Pinkham, Andrew Metrick, and David Argente. I am on the 2026–27 job market.
My research lies at the intersection of household finance and financial innovation. I study how households make credit, payment, and savings decisions, and how financial institutions and products respond to and shape those decisions.
Prior to Yale, I was a Research Associate at Harvard Business School, where I worked with Professors Boris Vallée and Jonas Heese on research in finance and accounting. I hold an M.A. in International and Development Economics from Yale and an Honours B.Sc. in Economics and Statistics from the University of Toronto.
