Ber­sant Hob­dari

My research interests span the broad areas of corporate governance, and international business and economics. In corporate governance my research focuses on the role and impact of ownership types and board of directors, and the role of national governance bundles on firm operations in developed, developing and emerging economies. In international business and economics my interests cover a host of issues such as the organizational dynamics of multinational enterprises, the home and host country impacts of multinational enterprise activities, the interrelation between international trade and foreign direct investment, and the political economy of trade and investment flows.   

I am an active member of the international academic community where I have served in different capacities including academic journal editor and member of boards of regional associations. Currently, I serve as Area Editor for the Multinational Business Review and a member of the Board of the Academy of International Business Western Europe Chapter.
