Steve H. Hanke (/ˈhæŋki/; born December 29, 1942) is an American economist and professor of applied economics at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland.[a] He is also a senior fellow at the Independent Institute in Oakland, California,[3] and co-director of the Johns Hopkins University's Institute for Applied Economics, Global Health, and the Study of Business Enterprise in Baltimore, Maryland.[4][5]

Hanke is known for his work as a currency reformer in emerging-market countries.[6][b] He was a senior economist with President Ronald Reagan's Council of Economic Advisers from 1981 to 1982,[25] and has served as an adviser to heads of state in countries throughout Asia, South America, Europe, and the Middle East.[26] He is also known for his work on currency boards, dollarization, hyperinflation, water pricing and demand, benefit-cost analysis, privatization, and other topics in applied economics. He has written extensively as a columnist for Forbes,[27] The National Review,[28] and other publications. He is also a currency and commodity trader.[29][30]

Hanke has been accused of spreading misinformation about the COVID-19 pandemic,[31][32][33] as well as the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine,[34][35] and was listed as a Russian propagandist by Ukraine's Center for Countering Disinformation.[36][37][38]
