Key themes include the role of societal trust in executive compensation frameworks and the efficacy of SEC enforcement mechanisms in politically diverse regions.
Khokhar's publications span topics from Islamic banking credit risk assessment in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to comparative studies of working capital management between Canadian and U.S. firms. His research often bridges theoretical financial models with real-world regulatory environments, emphasizing transparency in corporate reporting and the implications of regulatory capture.

His work consistently integrates interdisciplinary perspectives, combining legal frameworks, behavioral economics, and empirical corporate finance methodologies.
