Costanza Tomaselli

I am a PhD candidate in Economics at Imperial College Business School. My research focuses on financial economics, industrial organization, labor and environmental economics. From January to June 2025 I visited Yale University. 

I am on the 2026-2027 job market.

I am the recipient of the XII Giorgio Rota Best Paper Award for Young Researchers (2024), Best PhD paper at the Essex Finance Centre Conference (2024), Best PhD paper at International Finance and Banking Society (IFABS - 2024), and joint Best PhD poster at the Baruch/JFQA conference (2026). I hold the Imperial President's PhD Scholarship, a competitive scheme awarded to candidates demonstrating outstanding academic performance and strong research potential. The scholarship is awarded to only one student in each PhD cohort.

I hold an MRes with Distinction from Imperial College Business School, an MSc in Political Economy from the London School of Economics and Political Science, and a BSc in Economics from Bocconi University. Before joining Imperial, I worked as a senior economist in the UK Economics and Finance Ministry (HM Treasury).

I am fluent in English, Italian, and Spanish, with a working knowledge of French.
