Olivier Jean Blanchard (French: [blɑ̃ʃaʁ]; born December 27, 1948)[17] is a French economist and professor. He is serving as the Robert M. Solow Professor Emeritus of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and as the C. Fred Bergsten Senior Fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics.[18]

Blanchard was the chief economist at the International Monetary Fund from 1 September 2008 to 8 September 2015.[19][20][21] Blanchard was appointed to the position under the tenure of Dominique Strauss-Kahn; he was succeeded by Maurice Obstfeld.[22] According to IDEAS/RePEc, he is one of the most cited economists in the world.[23] Blanchard has also authored an undergraduate macroeconomics textbook, appearing so far in eight editions, which is one of the most widely used economics books at the undergraduate level, and in 1989 a graduate-level textbook (together with Stanley Fischer), which was prominent in its time.
