Dominik Groll has been a researcher at the Research Center for Business Cycles and Growth since 2009, where he is responsible for analyzing and forecasting the German labor market, including wage developments. He has represented the Kiel Institute in the labor market group of the Joint Economic Forecast since 2009. He is responsible for the DSGE model for Germany operated at the research center, which is used in particular to estimate the macroeconomic effects of economic policy measures. His research currently focuses on the effects of monetary unification for macroeconomic stability in the context of New Keynesian DSGE models and on the macroeconomic consequences of demographic aging in the context of OLG models (overlapping generations). He is regularly involved in consulting projects (e.g. for the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and the Federal Ministry of Finance). Topics have included the robustness of public finances in the course of increasing interest rates, the analysis and forecast of migration movements and the reasons for the productivity slowdown in Germany.
