As the Program for Financial Studies ("PFS") Faculty Director, I am pleased to welcome you to the PFS. Our program vision is to promote the integration of research, practical business and policy applications, teach in all aspects of financial studies, across all the disciplines within Columbia Business School, and continue our world-class outreach to the broader financial community. We have created several new Initiatives within the PFS, each geared toward a thematic focus that reflects the particular strengths of CBS faculty research, and each directed by the most accomplished members of the CBS faculty. I hope that you will spend some time navigating our web page, finding out about these new Initiatives, and following our various events, including the News and Finance conferences, and the particularly popular video presentations of faculty research from our No Free Lunch Seminar series.
Best wishes,
Charles W. Calomiris
