Profile: Samer joined the University of 91ֱ�� as an Associate Professor of Finance after working as a lecturer at the University of Birmingham and completing his Ph.D. in Finance at the University of St Andrews. Samer’s research is primarily focused on the interaction between stock market movements, macroeconomic forces, and corporate actions. He examines the extent to which companies learn from the variations in their monetary and economic environment in developing and adjusting key corporate actions such as Mergers and Acquisitions, Research and Development, and Equity Offerings. He also studies the role of informed trading - within the framework of the Grossman-Stiglitz paradox and the original work of F.A. Hayek - in influencing stock returns at both the firm and market levels. Samer’s recent research examines the role of time in shaping expectations in equity markets. He welcomes Ph.D. proposals in the fields of Corporate Finance and Applied Monetary Analysis.
