Faculty Expertise

  • We were interested in studying the Chinese market because it’s an example of what happens when fintech and innovation get ahead of government regulation.

    Professor Kelly Shue teaching a class.

  • I think of finance as the part of economics that centers on time and uncertainty. You need a lot of data to get a sense of where the market will go.
