Peter G. Hansen works in economics and finance, focusing on how investors and firms make decisions when they face uncertainty about probabilities or beliefs (sometimes called 'ambiguity'), rather than assuming everyone knows exact odds of future outcomes. His work includes methods for statistically testing economic models under weaker assumptions, applications to entrepreneurial and long-term corporate financing, and analysis of investor belief formation and financial market rules such as stock tick-size policy.
