Chotibhak (Pab) Jotikasthira is a Professor of Finance and holds the Phyllis Gough Huffington Chair at the Edwin L. Cox School of Business, Southern Methodist University. Previously an Assistant Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, his academic career centers on empirical finance with emphasis on institutional market dynamics. He earned his PhD in General Business from Indiana University in 2009. Prior to doctoral studies, he gained industry experience as a Portfolio and Risk Manager at the Bank of Thailand, managing $38 billion in foreign-exchange reserves and developing quantitative investment models. Professor Jotikasthira's research investigates financial intermediation through the lens of institutional frictions including regulatory capital requirements and accounting rules. His work reveals how these constraints shape financial intermediaries' trading behaviors in fixed income and international finance markets, directly impacting asset pricing mechanisms and systemic risk transmission. Particular focus is given to institutional investor strategies across bond markets. His publication trajectory in premier journals like the Journal of Finance and Review of Financial Studies demonstrates evolving expertise from foundational work on term structure co-movements to contemporary analyses of mutual fund industry structure, insurer-driven systemic risk, and tax-induced market inefficiencies in municipal bonds. Recent research increasingly examines institutional investor behavior as a driver of market fragility.
