Finance

Welcome to the Finance section. The section conducts theoretical and empirical research within all areas of finance, including asset pricing, household finance, corporate finance, quantitative finance, and financial institutions.

Our research is widely published in leading international journals, and our members regularly participate in scientific conferences around the world. We offer an active research environment that values regular research seminars with both leading international academics in our field and internal section members. Our members deliver high-quality research-based teaching to the department’s educational programmes within finance and participate in the public debate. The section is home to an international group of more than 30 faculty members and around 10 PhD students. Aarhus University is a member of the Nordic Finance Network (NFN)
