Louis A. Simpson Center for the Study of Macroeconomics
Director: Richard Rogerson
Founded in 2015 through a generous gift from Louis A. Simpson, the Louis A. Simpson Center for the Study of Macroeconomics seeks to better understand the forces that shape macroeconomic outcomes and the potential for policy to influence these outcomes. We support a broad range of activities in support of this goal, including post-doctoral fellowships, visiting faculty, seminars, conferences, and research support for students and faculty.
January 2022
We are deeply saddened by the news that Lou Simpson has passed away. Lou had a long and incredibly successful career as an investment manager, prompting Warren Buffet to refer to him as a “Hall of Fame” investor. Lou’s philanthropy was equally remarkable. The Simpson Center was made possible by a generous gift from Lou and his wife Kimberly Querrey, and they also funded the Louis A. Simpson International Building. On a personal level we experienced Lou’s kindness and caring. We remain extremely grateful for their support and our thoughts are with Lou’s family.
