www.FinTechProfessor.com
To serve the research community in a better way, we have embarked on developing a professional website, www.FinTechProfessor.com; We are gradually adding contents to it. Right now, the most useful section for students is the research topic repository, which can be accessed from here. This repository provides an excellent starting point to think about various possibilities when deciding a research topic. We shall be adding data and other useful resources such as data management techniques, useful Stata programs for research and much more to this website.
Lectures and Slides
On the following pages, I share slides and other courses material for my students and other users. These materials can be used for learning, not by website owners without prior permission.
Strategic Financial Management
Research and Data
Research and Data pages on this website have the objective to provide researchers with access to Pakistani financial data of listed firms, macroeconomic data, and monetary statistics of Pakistan. Moreover, these pages provide different resources to help researcher in their search for research topics, broader research areas, and resources such as journals. Following list populates links related to the above mentioned helping materials.

Paid Data & Help
Our group, the StataProfessor, provides paid help in empirical methods in finance and large data processing. Our core competence is in Stata programming and statistical analysis. Regarding the nature of help we provide, we cooperate with researchers throughout the data management, data processing, writing and implementing Stata codes for analysis.
Paid Help: Misconception
Every now and then, we receive odd requests, such as request for ready-made proposals, thesis write-up, paper write-up as a ghost writer, and so on. As before, here we want to clarify that we do not entertain any such requests. Our paid help is only related to writing Stata and Excel codes, data provision, data management, and guidance on selecting appropriate analytical tools. We do not do any of the following activities: doing students assignments, writing thesis, conducting literature review, developing hypotheses, selling ready-made results, publishing papers for others, or any other activity that might negatively affect students' learning.
asm: A Stata Program for Momentum Portfolios
More than 300 research papers have provided a pervasive evidence in support of momentum strategy. Still, this area attracts researchers in a variety of ways. One common problem with momentum portfolios construction is the extensive labor work using conventional spreadsheet programs such as MS Excel, specifically constructing portfolios in overlapping fashion. To overcome this issue, I have written an easy to use Stata program, asm, that offers a large number of options which have been used in the momentum literature.
Annual Reports of PXS-Listed Firms
In the database section of the website, we have updated the annual reports till 2016. Also, we have added more reports to the previous collection. These additions have further enriched our database, with more cross-sectional and time-series coverage. The reports can be downloaded individually and folder-wise. These reports can be accessed from It ca n be accessed from the link given below:
