Research summary
AI-generated

Sinan Gokkaya studies corporate finance topics such as how mergers and acquisitions are integrated after a deal closes, how financial analysts and mutual funds create (or fail to create) value for investors, and how professional and political connections influence the flow of information in capital markets. Much of the work uses large datasets on analysts, mutual funds, and corporate transactions to test how information, expertise, and relationships affect financial markets. This research would suit students interested in empirical corporate finance, financial intermediaries, and market efficiency.
