Alexis Direr


A picture of me.

I am a professor of economics at the Université of Orléans, member of the Laboratoire d'Economie d'Orléans (LEO-CNRS).

My research explores various topics in the microeconomics of risk and time: intertemporal preferences (present bias, behavioral discounting), household finance, decentralized finace, insurance and savings (behavioral finance, retirement saving, taxation of saving, insurance markets), risk seeking (betting markets, lottery markets).


I am the author of a textbook on Insurance Economics (in French), in Ed Economica, collection Corpus Économie, octobre 2020, see Table.
