I have published in academic journals including the Journal of Financial Intermediation, Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, World Development, Journal of Financial Stability, Journal of Banking and Finance, Financial Management and the Journal of International Money and Finance.

I received grants from the German Academic Exchange Service, Dutch Science Foundation and the European Credit Research Institute, consulted with the EU and the Center for European Policy Studies and taught graduate courses in 11 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe and North America. I am a member of the editorial advisory board of the Journal of Financial Economic Policy and of the editorial board of Empirical Economics, Finance Research Letters, International Review of Financial Analysis, and the Journal of Financial Research.
