Research areas

Maria Chiara's main research interests lie in the fields of behavioural finance and banking systemic risk. In the former, she focuses on investors’ nominal price preferences, disagreement, and market reactions to corporate events, such as mergers and acquisitions and stock splits. More recently, Maria Chiara has been working on banking and insurance companies’ systemic risk, investigating the impact of regulation and social/environmental responsibility on the resiliency of the European and US banking system.

Maria Chiara is accepting PhD students in the following areas:

- biodiversity and banking behaviour, risk and performance
- social and environmental performance in banks
- stock splits and nominal price preferences
- banking systemic risk and regulation
- behavioural finance and investors' behaviours, with a focus on herding, investors' disagreement and numbers processing bias
