Broadly speaking, my research is devoted to the understanding and building of reliable institutions to foster good economic governance. I’m concerned with how institutions are designed to overcome market failures that exclude the poor. My research intends to provide alternative and innovative solutions to social problems that conventional market arrangements cannot tackle due to externalities and market failures. In this regard, part of my published contributions addresses the issue of how to improve the governance rules of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria in order to achieve a more fair allocation of funds and to improve deliberation within its decision-making body. More lately, my research is exploring the so called “non-loss, non-dividend social business,” with microfinance as an example.
