Hi, welcome to my website!

Assistant Professor in Finance

I am a passionate researcher in the field of sustainable finance, biodiversity, and climate finance, and a recipient of the 2024 Lamfalussy Research Fellowship from the European Central Bank (ECB).

​​​​In my research, I explore how investors assess corporate climate and biodiversity-related risks, and how text analysis and AI can enhance the identification of firms’ environmental risk profiles. I examine investors’ reliance on ESG ratings, climate and nature-related risk scores, and corporate disclosures, as well as the methodologies underlying these metrics and their exposure to potential greenwashing.
