Attila Balogh

I am an Assistant Professor of Finance at the University of Melbourne and a Visiting Scholar at the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business.
Previously, I was a postdoctoral associate in finance at Cornell University’s Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management, working with Matthew Baron and Scott Yonker. I earned a Ph.D. in finance from UNSW Sydney and spent two years of my doctoral studies at the University of Oxford Saïd Business School as a visiting scholar. I was hosted by my thesis advisor, Renée Adams.

My work on CEO compensation was recently featured in Columbia Law School’s CLS Blue Sky Blog:
Does Stakeholder Outrage Affect Executive Compensation?

A paper describing my insider trading dataset was recently published in Nature Scientific Data.

I offer a range of datasets based on EDGAR filings updated daily on the Harvard Layline Dataverse. It includes datasets on including insider trading, quarterly institutional investor holding reports, corporate filings, and shareholder activism.
