P.P. (Peter) Wakker

Personal website.

Peter Wakker is a professor of decisions under uncertainty at the Department of Econometrics of the Erasmus School of Economics (ESE). He works in behavioral economics, primarily on the differences between normative and descriptive decisions, and on decisions under risk and uncertainty.

Wakker has published in leading journals in economics, business, medicine, psychology, statistics, and mathematics. He was nominated the best-publishing Dutch economist in the years 1994, 1998, 2003, and 2007, and was ranked 90th in the world in the ISI's most cited scientists in economics and business in 2003. He received a Medical Decision Making Career Achievement Award in 2007.

Wakker regularly gives advices on insurance in the media.

Wakker is director, jointly with Professor Han Bleichrodt, of the research group Behavioral Economics.
