Teaching

In the academic year 2020/2021 I teach Empirical Accounting and Finance. For students enrolled on this unit, further information is available on Blackboard.

Research

I specialise in empirical corporate finance, corporate governance and capital markets research. I have recently been working on the analysis of share trading by corporate insiders and on firms' exposure to political risks - with a particular focus on Brexit.
