    Biography

    Dr. Thomas Flavin is an Associate Professor in Finance. Thomas joined the Department of Economics, Finance and Accounting in 1998 after completing his D.Phil on 'Tactical Asset Allocation' at University of York, under the supervision of Michael Wickens. His main research interests are in financial market linkages and shock transmission, financial contagion, and in empirical models of asset allocation. He has published in leading peer-reviewed academic journals such as Journal of Banking and Finance, Journal of International Money and Finance, Economics Letters, Emerging Markets Review, Journal of Forecasting, International Review of Finance among others. He has held visiting positions at University of York, University of Cambridge and the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.

    Research Interests

    Financial Contagion and Shock Transmission
    I am particularly interested in the detection and measurement of financial contagion. Tests of the stability of the shock transmission mechanism across market conditions is an important issue in many issues in financial economics and a clear understanding is crucial for the development of appropriate policy responses.

    Portfolio and Investment Management
    I am also interested in measuring financial market co-movements and how diversification strategies perform during downturns and crises.

    Macroeconomic influences on financial markets
    The interaction of macroeconomic factors and financial market variables is another focus of my research. To what extent do macroeconomic influences drive financial market returns and co-movements?
