Peter Christoffersen
Peter Christoffersen passed away in the summer of 2018. Peter was TMX chair in Capital Markets at the Rotman School of Business at the University of Toronto. Peter has been an international fellow of CREATES since its inception in 2007, and we knew him as a wonderful person and scholar who made great contributions to the field of financial econometrics and to the international environment at CREATES. We will miss him greatly, and our thoughts are with his family in this difficult moment.
