Abstract

My research has primarily focused on the Icelandic economy. I have examined many aspects of it, including the pension system and especially the return on its assets, the stock market and its efficiency, demographic development and its impact on the economy, migration, both within the country and internationally. Additionally, I have written about game theory, corporate governance, and calendar effects on asset markets. I have also written a number of reports on various issues and three textbooks.
