Professor Loumioti's research centers on financial intermediation with expertise in non-bank lending, securitization, and credit markets. She examines ESG debt instruments, banking transparency, and soft information in loan quality assessment. Her work bridges accounting, finance, and sustainability policy through rigorous empirical analysis of debt markets and regulatory impacts.
Analysis of her publication trajectory reveals growing emphasis on sustainable finance since 2020, particularly examining ESG investor behavior in debt markets and discrepancies between banks' environmental disclosures versus actual lending practices. Her recent work investigates sustainability-linked loan structures while earlier research established foundational insights on intangible asset collateralization and short-termism in capital markets.
