His current research foci are in the areas of the roles of volatility transmission across markets, institutional and governance structures in delivering efficient outcomes in transition and market-oriented economies, the development and efficiency of emerging market economy financial systems and corporations, the provision of financial advice to lower socio-economic groups, and the corporate finance impacts of corporate social responsibility (CSR), environmental, sustainability and governance (ESG) factors, and green finance.
