Meeting ID: 929 2825 8401 Passcode: 545850

Jeremy Bertomeu’s research specialization is in financial accounting, in particular, the valuation implications of the primary financial statements such as the balance sheet, the income statement, the statement of cash flows and the statement of stockholders' equity. His research aims at understanding the trade-offs involved in implementing more efficient accounting choices, and empirically measuring the degree to which these trade-offs require regulatory action.

He also received an Alexander Henderson Dissertation Award in 2008, a Center for Applied Research and Technology grant in 2007 – 2008 and a William Larimer Mellon PhD Fellowship in 2003 – 2006 from Carnegie Mellon University. He earned an MSc in Finance from HEC Paris, France and a License Mathematics from the University of Besançon, France in 2002 and a PhD in Economics from Carnegie Mellon University in 2008.
