John Holmes Makin (May 29, 1943 – March 30, 2015) was an American economist and resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute.〔(American Enterprise Institute Biography ), aei.org; accessed March 31, 2015.〕 He was a consultant to the U.S. Treasury Department, the Congressional Budget Office, the International Monetary Fund, and the Bank of Japan. He specialized in international finance and financial markets, with special emphasis on both Japanese and European economies. Makin reported on the U.S. economy, writing on topics related to monetary policy, tax and budget issues, in monthly essays entitled "Economic Outlook," for the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). He was a principal at Caxton Associates from 1995–2010 before returning to AEI. Makin earned a PhD in economics from the University of Chicago after writing a dissertation on the risk involved in the composition of international reserve holdings. For the next decade, he held various positions at several research universities, including the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, the University of Virginia, and the University of British Columbia. During this time, he also held research appointments at the Federal Reserve Banks of Chicago and San Francisco. In 1978 he was named the director of the Institute for Economic Research at the University of Washington, a post he held for six years. Makin frequently commented on national and international policy debates, serving as a consultant to the International Monetary Fund and the US Treasury, and holding a post as a research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research. It was during this time that he also established his long-running relationship with the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). After serving as a member of the Panel of Economic Advisers for the Congressional Budget Office for a decade, holding a post at AEI, and consulting for the Bank of Japan, Makin moved from academia into financial markets, working closely with Caxton Associates for two decades. During Makin's time as chief economist at Caxton Associates, the fund returned, on average, 21 percent per year, one of the best rates of return in the industry. In 2010, Makin returned to the AEI. Makin wrote a monthly economics newsletter called the Economic Outlook for many years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aei.org/scholar/john-h-makin )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John H.
