Batten Long Bio Jonathan A. Batten is Professor of Finance at Monash University, Australia (from July 2013). Prior to this position he worked at the Hong Kong University of Science & Technology (2006-2013) and Seoul National University, Korea (2002-2005). While he is an Australian citizen he also has Hong Kong permanent residency. He is the managing editor of Emerging Markets Review (from January 2007), Journal of International Financial Markets Institutions and Money (from January 2015), co-editor of Finance Research Letters (from January 2015) and an associate editor of the Journal of Banking & Finance, Journal of the Asia Pacific Economy, Journal of Multinational Financial Management, Research in International Business and Finance, and International Review of Financial Analysis. Apart from these positions, Jonathan has extensive international teaching and research experience: University of Western Sydney, Australia (1990-1998) as Senior Lecturer in international finance and risk management; Indiana University, USA, where he was a visiting Research Fellow as part of his PhD studies (1993); Nanyang Technological University in Singapore (1999) as visiting Senior Research Fellow; Temple University Tokyo, Japan (2004-6) as Visiting Professor; and Aarhus School of Business, Denmark as Visiting Professor of Finance (December 2005). From November 2002- 2006 he was also appointed an Honorary Professor of Arts, Deakin University Melbourne, Australia and from July 2014 he was appointed President of the Eurasian Business and Economic Association (EBES). After completing a degree in data processing in 1981 Jonathan was first employed by the State Bank of NSW, Australia as an Economic Research Assistant attached to the funds management area. Later, he was involved in foreign exchange, interest rate trading and financial risk management positions with the Australian Industry Development Corporation, Bank of Tokyo and Credit Lyonnais. In recognition of Jonathan’s extensive industry experience, in 1997 he was appointed a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Banking and Finance. Jonathan has continued to consult on asset-liability and credit risk management, and financial instrument pricing for IBM (1995-1996), Reuters Asia (1997- 2002) and American Express (1998). He has also received research grants (2000-2012) from the Asian Development Bank and The World Bank (as part of their programmes for developing fixed income markets in developing economies) and the Bank for International Settlements (2013). Jonathan completed an MBA in international finance in 1986 at the New South Wales Institute of Technology (now the University of Technology, Sydney) with a research report that focused on tax arbitrage in Euro-markets. These themes were further developed when he completed his Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Sydney in 1996 with a thesis that investigated cross-sectional variation in the risk management practices of financial and non- financial firms. His current research interests now include: Financial market development Financial risk management Asset pricing: spread modelling and market integration Financial statistics and engineering: the investigation of the non-linear dynamics of financial prices. A common theme through much of this later work concerns the investigation of non-linear dynamics and the more general analysis of financial time series using technology that accommodates mean non-stationarity and volatility clustering. More recently this work has been extended to an investigation of arbitrageable equilibria (such as covered interest parity arbitrage in foreign exchange markets). Expanding the investigation from single prices to more complex economic systems remains the focus of future research work. Research efforts are reflected in a large collection of works that have been published in international journals as well as chapters in books, research monographs, published conference proceedings and published working papers. His work on bond pricing and financial market development has been published in the "Journal of Financial & Quantitative Analysis", "World Bank Research Observer" and "Applied Economics" amongst others, whereas work in financial statistics and risk management has been published in “Chaos”, "Chaos, Solitons & Fractals", the "Journal of 2 International Business Studies" and "Physica A". His interest in stakeholder theory and ethical applications in business is also evidenced by a number of publications in The Journal of Business Ethics and the Journal of Corporate Citizenship. Jonathan first published "International Finance in Australia: A Case Study Approach” with Butterworths in 1993, then co-authored and edited with Thomas Fetherston, “Asia-Pacific Fixed Income Markets: An Analysis of the Region's Money, Bond and Interest Derivatives Markets", published by John Wiley & Sons in their Frontiers in Finance Series in 2002, and co-authored and edited “European Fixed Income Markets: Money, Bond, and Interest Rate Derivatives” with Thomas Fetherston and Peter Szilagyi. This volume was also published by John Wiley & Sons in the “Wiley Finance Series” in 2004. The final volume in this series on bond market development, “Japanese Fixed Income Markets: Money, Bond, and Interest Rate Derivatives” was coedited and co-authored with Thomas Fetherston and Peter Szilagyi, and was published by Elsevier in October 2006. The edited volume “Financial Risk and Financial Risk Management” was the Elsevier-North Holland technical book of the month in November 2002. Jonathan has also presented papers at a number of conferences of international standing including those of the Academy of International Business, Decision Sciences Institute, European Finance Association, European Financial Management Association, Econophysics Colloquium, Financial Management Association (US, Europe and Asia-Pacific Meetings), INFINITI International Finance, International Association for Statistical Computing, Mid-Western Finance Association and the SigmaPhi Association. Recently he has been a keynote speaker at SIBOS 2013 (Dubai), 2014 Paris Financial Management Conference and EBES Barcelona (2014). 3 Jonathan Andrew Batten Detailed Curriculum Vitae 1.
