The three Accounting and Finance divisions within this pathway have a reputation for producing outstanding international research. The research interests of our staff cover virtually all possible research streams in Accounting and Finance, ranging from quantitative asset pricing topics to purely qualitative research. We have clear strengths in the areas of economic performance and sustainable growth, for example through research on human rights violations by companies, governance and regulation of financial intermediaries, design and regulation of financial markets and financial risk.
