The fund is designated to support scholarship and teaching in the area of finance.
Ingersoll, who has taught at Yale SOM since 1982, was one of a group of scholars who helped create the theoretical underpinning for several decades of innovations on Wall Street. The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross model is still used to determine the movement of interest rates and the valuation of derivatives. His book Theory of Financial Decision Making is a standard text in financial economics.
