About The Intelligent Economist

Prateek Agarwal
This site was created by Prateek Agarwal, a former Economics student (University of Southern California).

To say I’m passionate about Economics is an understatement. It’s one of the most useful topics we can use to understand our world, plan for the future, and make the best decisions possible. Especially when times are volatile and uncertain.

I graduated with a B.A. in Economics from USC in 2013 and then received a certificate in international business from UC Berkeley in 2016. And beyond traditional schooling, I’ve sought to expand my knowledge and understanding of economics throughout the years in any way I can.

I’m also a member of the Financial Writers Society and I served as their Director of Technology for.
