I am an Associate Professor in the Accounting Department at Bocconi University. I received a B.A. from Bocconi University, a PhD in Economics from the University of Padova, and a postdoc in Accounting at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. My research focuses on executive compensation, incentive contracting, and corporate governance. Before joining Bocconi, I was on the faculty at London Business School (as assistant professor -2007 to 2016- and adjunct associate professor -2016 to 2022) and held visiting lecturer positions at Cambridge Judge Business School, Imperial College London and Cass Business School (City St George, University of London).
