معرفی
Han Özsöylev serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of International Finance at Özyeğin University's School of Business since 2021. His distinguished academic career includes joint faculty appointments at Queen Mary University of London (2019-2022), Koç University (2012-2021), and the University of Oxford (2004-2018), along with visiting positions at Johns Hopkins University, Sabancı University, and UC Berkeley.
Dr. Özsöylev earned his Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Minnesota (2004) and B.Sc. in Mathematics from Bilkent University (1999). His educational background established the foundation for his interdisciplinary research approach bridging finance and economics.
His research program centers on asset pricing, market microstructure, uncertainty and asymmetric information, and economic and financial networks. Özsöylev's theoretical frameworks often integrate network theory with behavioral finance principles to explain market anomalies, particularly focusing on how information diffusion and ambiguity aversion shape trading behavior and asset valuations. His work has established critical connections between network topology and price formation mechanisms.
Analysis of his publication record reveals consistent contributions to top-tier finance and economics journals, with recent work emphasizing regulatory impacts on asset returns (2024), ambiguity in financial decision-making (2023), and inflation's behavioral effects in emerging markets (2023). His research demonstrates methodological sophistication through both theoretical modeling and empirical analysis of large-scale market datasets.
Honors include:
- Editor's Choice/Lead Article designation in Review of Asset Pricing Studies (2024)
- Abstracted in CFA Digest (2014)
- Invited summary article in Finance & Accounting Memos (2016)
