Joni Heikkinen

I am a Researcher at the Bank of Finland and a Ph.D. student in Economics at the University of Jyväskylä. My research focuses on macroeconomics, text analysis, and nowcasting.

Currently, my main research interests are using text analysis to uncover central banks' loss functions, examining the media's role in shaping inflation expectations, and nowcasting real economic variables using machine-learning methods.
