MISSIONS AND VALUES

RESEARCH CENTER

Created in June 2021, the research laboratory of Financia Business School has as its main objective to raise awareness of the school in economic and institutional circles for the quality of its trainers, their professional knowledge combined with their theoretical reflections, all put at the service of the training of students.

Three main research areas have been selected; real estate as a financial asset, market finance and cryptocurrencies, and green finance, with two dimensions necessarily being added to each of these themes: financial education and the tax aspect.

The laboratory's activities are under the supervision of the Scientific Council.

Quarterly meetings are held to review the progress of each contributor's work. FinanciaRech publishes two research papers per year, case studies, academic articles in peer-reviewed journals, and organizes one scientific conference per year with a call for papers.

FinanciaRech is currently headed by Anouar Hassoune, a former student of HEC, Sciences Po Paris, Ecole Normale Supérieure and a qualified teacher of economics.
