Marius Ring is a Senior Lecturer and Senior Researcher. He does research in household and public finance, with an emphasis on taxation and entrepreneurship. In forthcoming work, he shows that wealth taxation can incentivize households to save more rather than less. Prior to joining the Department of Economics at Yale, Ring did his PhD at Northwestern University and was an Assistant Professor of Finance at the University of Texas. In ongoing work, he studies the optimal decoupling of income tax accrual and payment, the effects of business regulation on entrepreneurship, the role of personal holding companies in causing tax regressivity, and how differential taxation of safe versus risky assets (like stocks) affect households’ portfolio composition.
