Students will have a sound knowledge of concepts and phenomena related to public finance and public intervention in the economy with special reference to: social security, taxation and investment/financial decisions; taxation and labor supply; public debt; market regulation; market auctions.

- Social security: impact on investment decisions and labor supply; pension reforms in an ageing society.
- Public debt: macroeconomic effects, sustainability.
- Imperfect Competition, Market Regulation and Regulatory Reforms; Auctions and Procurement.
