Professor Martin Gelter, expert in Comparative Corporate Governance, Law & Economics and Corporate Law

Welcome! I am a Professor at Fordham University School of Law. My research explores corporate governance in its comparative and international dimensions, particularly in the relationship between the United States and Europe. I am interested in law and economics, law and finance, law and accounting, empirical legal studies, and comparative private law. My research has appeared in English, German, French, and has been translated into several other languages. I am also a research member of the European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI).

Before joining Fordham in 2009, I was an assistant professor at Vienna University of Economics, a Considine Fellow in Law and Economics at Harvard Law School, and a Visiting Fellow at the University of Bologna. As a faculty member, I have been a Visiting Professor at University Paris-II and at National Taiwan University. I have been an Academic Visitor at Oxford, a Fernand Braudel Senior Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence, and a Senior Fellow in the Program for the Foundations of Law and Finance at Goethe University of Frankfurt.
