Kellie’s research examines how U.S. based banks implemented changes to their risk management and ethics practices in response to increased regulatory expectations stemming from the 2008 financial crisis. Her work explores the correlation between the level and type of investment in risk management and ethics, and the institution’s profitability and market performance.
