Prof. Albert Mensah

Albert teaches the Financial Accounting course on the MBA program and has been included on Poets&Quants' list of "Top 10 MBA Professors to Watch in 2022," as well as Poets&Quants' list of "2023 Best 40-Under-40 MBA Professors." 

As regards his research activities, Albert conducts archival financial empirical research, investigating: (i) how firms' mandatory reporting and/or disclosure policies affect the decision-making behavior of capital market participants; (ii) how anti-corruption laws that seek to limit the influence of money in politics affect the behavior of firms and politicians; (iii) how capital market participants (e.g., investors [including asset managers], creditors, analysts, suppliers) are making use of alternative sources of financial data (e.g., big data) in their decision-making; (iv) how machine learning tools can help flag firms that are likely suspects of earnings manipulation; and (v) how discrimination in the mortgage lending market can be alleviated. 

Away from research, he is a tennis fanatic.
