English Professors Lucas Jóver Maestri and Humberto Luiz Ataide Moreira of the Brazilian School of Economics and Finance at Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV EPGE) were rewarded first and second place, respectively, in the Economic Theory category of the bi-annual prize granted by the Brazilian Econometric Society (SBE).
Maestri and his co-authors, Daniel Garrett and Renato Gomes, both of Toulouse School of Economics, presented the article “Competitive Screening under Heterogeneous Information”; Moreira, together with Vinicius Carrasco (PUC-Rio), developed a study titled “Robust Decision-Making.”
Both studies were presented to the public and the jury at the 36th Brazilian Econometric Society Meeting in December 2014, in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. The award ceremony was held on December 11, the final day of the conference.
The Brazilian Econometric Society instituted its prize in 1994 to be granted every two years to the best article published over that two-year period in the Brazilian Review of Econometrics.
