The 2020 Nobel Prize in Economics was awarded to Professor Paul Milgram (72) and Prof. Robert Wilson (83) from Stanford University.

They won the award following improvements they made to auction theory and auctions in the auction method.

The two were chosen after winning the Jewish-American Economist Prof. Michael Kramer, Prof. Esther Duplo from France and her Indian husband - Prof. Abhijit Banergi.

The three won the award following the results of their research on poverty reduction.

Duplo even made history by becoming the youngest winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics and became the second woman ever to win the award.

This is after the American researcher of Jewish descent, Eleanor Ostrom, who won in 2009.
