Shan Ge, New York University
Professor Ge’s research focuses on the nexus of finance, insurance, and climate change, encompassing three distinct areas of inquiry. First, she delves into significant corporate finance issues leveraging the insurance sector as a study setting, offering robust causal inferences. Second, her research investigates the impact of insurance (e.g. health insurance and flood insurance) on both corporations and households. Third, her work sheds light on insurance companies’ pivotal role as financial intermediaries, facilitating capital flows within capital markets, while enabling households to hedge risks associated with mortality, longevity, and natural disasters stemming from climate change.
Her scholarly contributions have been published in prestigious financial academic journals such as The Journal of Finance, Review of Financial Studies, and Journal of Financial Economics. Furthermore, her research has been cited by the US Senate and has received coverage in reputable news outlets, including the New York Times.
