Roubini Global Economics or RGE (formerly known as RGE Monitor), is a global economic and financial analysis firm based in New York City. The company also has an office in London.

History

RGE was founded in 2004 by Dr. Nouriel Roubini, former senior adviser to the U.S. Treasury and the International Monetary Fund and a professor at New York University's Stern School of Business. The company re-branded itself as Roubini Global Economics (RGE) in 2010 and now has offices in New York and London, and includes a staff of several dozen in-house economists and analysts. Dr. Roubini serves as Chairman for the company and provides direction to the analytical team.

Acquisitions

In July 2012, RGE announced that it had acquired Country Insights. In a press release, Nouriel Roubini commented “We believe our clients will find added value in the combination of Country Insights’ systematic country risk approach and RGE’s macroeconomic strategy analysis”.[1]
