Official Source Note

Chicago Booth lists Leuz as Charles F. Pohl Distinguished Service Professor of Accounting and Finance and describes his research on disclosure and transparency in capital markets, the economic effects of regulation, international accounting, corporate governance, and finance.

Leuz is included because securities-law research on disclosure and financial reporting needs empirical evidence on transparency, reporting mandates, real effects, cost-benefit analysis, and institutional variation.
