About the Milken Institute

A nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank, the Milken Institute believes in the power of capital markets to solve urgent social and economic challenges and improve lives. To build a foundation of rigorous, independent research, we have assembled a respected team of economists, industry experts and scholars to analyze the issues and choices facing policymakers. We convene a network of influential decision-makers from the private and public sectors to help us transform ideas into action.

Our mission is to improve lives around the world by advancing innovative economic and policy solutions that create jobs, widen access to capital and enhance health. At the heart of our work is the idea that societies prosper if they have an educated, healthy workforce; open and efficient capital markets; and effective social institutions. Whether the issue is building a more sustainable energy future or ensuring that entrepreneurs can access the credit they need to grow their companies and create jobs, our objective is to advance solutions that create prosperity in all corners of the globe. Our Research Our ambitious research agenda tackles the issues that matter in a complex and interconnected global economy. We explore the intersection of finance, business, philanthropy and policy to determine how public and private investment can drive progress. All of our work underscores the importance of human capital. That theme is front and center, whether we're analyzing the policy implications of an aging population or the growing demand for highly skilled workers. A thriving economy requires a healthy workforce. We are committed to exploring critical issues in health economics, from the impact of obesity to regulatory and financing challenges in the biomedical industry.
