W. Travis Selmier studies the politics and governance of finance and banking, with particular attention to China's financial system and how it is monitored and regulated. A second strand of the work examines the mining and extractive industries, focusing on corporate social responsibility and sustainable development, especially in Africa. The research often draws on institutional and political-economy perspectives to understand how money, power, and markets interact across borders.
