G’day! I’m a final-year PhD Candidate in the Department of Banking and Finance, Monash University. My research interests lie broadly in the field of asset management, with specific areas of focus including fixed-income markets, securities lending, and specialised institutional entities (e.g., separate accounts, information intermediaries).
