Seminar series - Finance
After the successful series last year, we are back with a new, exciting schedule for the upcoming academic year. Our Seminar Series is the result of excellent speaker suggestions from our faculty members and a shortlisting based on both academic and diversity criteria.
The speakers work on a variety of topics in asset pricing, banking, and corporate finance, with a good mix of theory and empirical research.
Faculty and research students are all encouraged to attend the seminars, participate, and meet speakers following the instructions sent weekly by our Business School Research Team.
Below is the full schedule for this academic year. We hope that you enjoy.
