For scholars
The GCFP attracts leading academics from around the world in its pursuit of creating innovative, cross-disciplinary and non-partisan research on the unique challenges facing governments in their role as financial institutions and as regulators of the financial system.
Every year, the Center welcomes several visiting scholars to work on related research for a one-year term. If you have an idea about research that you would like to explore with us, please contact our Executive Director, Edward Golding.
