Zhi Da is the Howard J. and Geraldine F. Korth Chair in Finance and Professor of Finance at the University of Notre Dame , Mendoza College of Business, Department of Finance. He completed his Ph.D. in Finance at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management (2006), preceded by an M.Sc. in Financial Engineering from the National University of Singapore (2001) and a B.B.A. with First-Class Honors (1999) from the same institution.

Education Ph.D. in Finance, 2006 – Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University M.Sc. in Financial Engineering, 2001 – National University of Singapore B.B.A. (1st Class Honors), 1999 – National University of Singapore Research Interests Zhi Da’s scholarship sits at the intersection of asset pricing , behavioral finance , and market microstructure . He investigates how investor attention, institutional trading, liquidity frictions, and information flows jointly determine the cross-section of expected returns. His work delves into retail margin trading, the role of pension-fund flows in exchange-rate dynamics, the informational content of SEC filings, and the efficiency of short-selling mechanisms. By combining large-scale data analytics, textual analysis, and structural modeling, he uncovers novel predictors of returns ranging from presidential approval ratings to real-time attention measures. Recent projects explore fractional trading ’s impact on price efficiency, hedging demand as a driver of intraday momentum, and the hidden effort problem in delegated portfolio management. These themes collectively advance our understanding of limits to arbitrage and the formation of extrapolative beliefs. Publication Landscape Spanning 2025 back to 2009, his 15 most recent articles in Journal of Finance , Review of Financial Studies , Management Science , Journal of Financial Economics , and Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis converge on three broad motifs: (1) micro-level trading frictions—liquidity costs, margin requirements, and short-selling constraints; (2) macro-finance linkages—exchange rates, fiscal policy, and global capital flows; and (3) information economics—attention allocation, media analytics, and regulatory disclosures. The collective evidence demonstrates that seemingly small trading or informational frictions aggregate into large, persistent cross-sectional return predictability. Honors and Awards 2017 William F. Sharpe Award for Best Paper, Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis Lead-article distinctions in Journal of Finance , Review of Financial Studies , and Management Science Featured coverage in SmartMoney and CNBC Teaching & Mentorship At Notre Dame’s Mendoza College, Professor Da teaches Investments (undergraduate and MBA) and Fixed Income Securities , integrating cutting-edge research insights into the curriculum.

• Economic Sociology
• Money and Economy
• Family and Parenting

Nina Bandelj serves as a Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of California, Irvine, where she is an active affiliate of the Center for Organizational Research (COR). Her research bridges economic sociology and family studies, examining how money, debt, and market logics permeate intimate social relations. She frequently participates in COR initiatives like the Academic Speed-Dating events held in Social Sciences Plaza B, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration among scholars. Bandelj's research centers on three interconnected domains: (1) the economization of family life , analyzing how parenting transforms into human capital investment through debt-financed childcare and education; (2) cross-national inequality , investigating ethnic marginalization in Eastern Europe and gender pay gaps within workplaces; and (3) money's social meaning , exploring emotional economies of modern parenting and the valuation of 'priceless' social domains. Her work consistently challenges the 'hostile worlds' thesis by demonstrating how economic and intimate spheres co-constitute each other. Recent publications reveal intensifying focus on debt-driven middle-class parenting (e.g., mortgage debt tied to childrearing) and commodified childhood (e.g., pricing early education), while maintaining strong comparative analysis of postsocialist economies. This trajectory reflects broader shifts in economic sociology toward studying financialization's penetration into familial spheres. Bandelj actively cultivates scholarly communities through COR events and writing initiatives like 'U See I Write,' emphasizing collaborative knowledge production. Her work demonstrates how micro-level family economies scaffold macro-level policy failures, particularly regarding America's family-hostile welfare state.
