CAF is dedicated to research in all areas of finance, including financial markets, instruments, institutions, and regulations. The research activities of the Centre often focus on issues and problems in emerging economies, but are by no means limited to them. In addition to the ISB faculty, CAF researchers include distinguished scholars from Berkeley, Chicago, Cornell, Kellogg, NYU, UCLA, Wharton, and other institutions of global standing.
