Iwan J. Azis has addressed and published topics of regional and financial economics, economic modeling, and the linkages between macro-financial policy and social issues. He has conducted research and consulted for various international organizations and universities, held a visiting professorship at the MITI Institute in Japan, Australian National University, Gakushuin University in Japan, and the University of Indonesia. During the Asian financial crisis in the late 1990s, he spoke before the Joint Economic Committee (JEC) of the U.S. Congress along with the deputy prime ministers of Thailand and Korea. Through his concept and publications on regional integration, he was recently asked by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to become the Head of a newly set up Office of Regional Economic Integration (OREI) at the ADB Headquarter. This new task will provide a new challenge of combining the academic research and the hands-on work with policy makers in 47 countries.
Azis received his B.A. from the University of Indonesia in 1978, and his M.Sc. from Cornell in 1982. He then received his Ph.D. from Cornell in 1983.
