Research

Our research focuses on banking, mutual funds, microfinance, and credit risk management. Below are some examples for empirical research questions that we address in our work:

• Do banks lend to riskier borrowers if they are entitled to public guarantees?
• How does CDS usage impact mutual fund investors?
• To what extend do loan officers react to „high-powered“ financial incentives?
