The central goal of the CFR is to generate new knowledge in the fields of Asset Management and Risk Management. Currently, the main focus is on Investment Funds, Investor Behaviour, Trading Strategies and Liquidity Risk.

Currently, nine internationally renowned professors from the U.S. and Germany join the CFR as research fellows. Furthermore, assistant professors, post-doctorates and PhD candidates are part of the CFR research team. The members of the CFR research team publish their findings in the CFR Working Papers Series. Until now, 97 CFR Working Papers are included in the CFR Working Paper Series. You can find the CFR Working Papers of the current year here.

Looking at the list of publications, the quality of our research becomes apparent. To this day, 46 CFR Working Papers have been accepted for publication in high-ranked journals like the Journal of Finance, the Journal of Financial Economics and the Review of Financial Studies.
