Recent Work
Jacques worked on quantifying damages suffered by a firm in a multi-year cartel in the road sign industry. This involved the assessment of a counterfactual scenario taking into account the evolution of costs and other parameters that were independent of the effect of the cartel on the price charged by the cartelist firms.
Recognition
Jacques has been awarded two scholarships for excellence covering the full tuition fees of his two years of master's studies by the financial committee of Toulouse School of Economics.
