Anticipation Builds for 2024 Nobel Economics Prize Announcement

The 2024 Nobel economics prize will be announced by the Norwegian Nobel Committee on Monday, spotlighting research on credit, government roles, and wealth inequality as likely themes among contenders. Last year's awardee was Claudia Goldin, recognized for studies on women's labor market outcomes. Only three women have won the prize since its inception in 1969. Possible 2024 winners include Nobuhiro Kiyotaki and John H. Moore, for economic cycle research, and Susan Athey, for advancements in market design. Other speculated candidates are Daron Acemoglu, Philippe Aghion, George Loewenstein, Kenneth Rogoff, and Carmen Reinhart. This award, although a newer addition to the Nobel family, will be presented in December, wrapping up the current Nobel season.
On Monday, the Norwegian Nobel Committee will reveal the 2024 Nobel economics prize recipient, with focus on research such as credit, government roles, and wealth inequality among the potential winners.

Previous winner Claudia Goldin was acknowledged for her work on women's labour market outcomes.

Since 1969, only three women, including Goldin, have received this honor.

Mikael Carlsson of Uppsala University suggests possible winners like Nobuhiro Kiyotaki, John H. Moore, or Susan Athey for influential work in economic cycles and market design.

Speculation extends to academics like Daron Acemoglu, noted for his writings on power, prosperity, and poverty, as well as Philippe Aghion, George Loewenstein, Kenneth Rogoff, Carmen Reinhart, Olivier Blanchard, Larry Summers, Gregory Mankiw, Thomas Piketty, Gabriel Zucman, Emmanuel Saez, Janet Currie, and Partha Dasgupta.

The prize, although not one of Alfred Nobel's original five, established by the Swedish central bank in 1968, will conclude this year's Nobel celebrations on December 10.
