Professor Mian's expertise are in the area of macro economics and finance and his research has been published in all the top academic journals in economics and finance. Widely regarded as one of the best economists in his area, IMF identified Atif as one of twenty-five young economists who are shaping the world's thinking about the global economy.
His book, House of Debt, explains how excessive debt lead to a global economic crisis and what needs to be done to fix the financial system. The book, and his work, have won awards and been critically acclaimed by The New York Times, Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Economist, and The Atlantic among others. Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman describes Atif as a, "leading expert on the macroeconomic effects of private debt." Larry Summer, probably the most influential American Economist in academia describes Atif’s work as, ”in many ways a model for what economists should do”.
