Biography

Kellogg School of Management

Lorenz Kueng is an Assistant Professor of Finance at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. His research focuses on household finance, public finance, and household consumption behavior. His recent work analyzes whether household behavior responds to news about future income tax changes; how household shopping behavior responds to anticipated sales tax changes; whether and how consumers spend large lump-sum payments; and how preferences form early in life. Prof. Kueng also studies how firms dynamically adjust to various changes in their environment, with a particular focus on the role of management practices.

Professor Kueng joined the Kellogg School of Management in 2012. He received his PhD in 2012 from the University of California at Berkeley with his dissertation Expected Taxes and Household Consumption Behavior, which won him the Public Policy Prize.
