Ivan Komarov’s Education

  • University of Maryland College Park

    PhD , Economics , 19962004

    Activities and Societies:
    CEU Labor Project data collection of Russian companies in 1999. 538 companies interviewed, 70% filled out 50 page questionnaire. Results have formed the basis of my dissertation on non-monetary payments in Russia at the end of 90s. I attribute a large portion of barter to liquidity squeeze and credit absence as well as kartoteka practice of tax collection.
  • Central European University

    MA , Economics , 19941996

    My thesis was on boundaries of the firm where I researched why Russian companies in mid 90s didn't outsource (survival strategies and chaos, as well as no contract enforcement, demanded insourcing).

    Activities and Societies:
    1 year of Transition Economics Pilot Program
    Graduated with Distinction
  • Novosibirskij Gosudarstvennyj Universitet

    Diploma , Economics , 19891994

    Activities and Societies:
