AMBS Professor of Accounting and Finance Konstantinos Stathopoulos has been appointed the Otto Moensted Visiting Professor at Copenhagen Business School (CBS) for two years.
Konstantinos takes up the post next year which will involve him spending several weeks a year in the Danish capital alongside his AMBS role.
Through his role as editor in chief of the academic journal Corporate Governance and International Review, Professor Stathopoulos has previously collaborated with professors at CBS, but said this would be a perfect opportunity to further widen his research network and collaborations.
As he explained: "CBS is particularly well known for its Corporate Governance Centre and this post, which is purely a research professorship, will be a really exciting opportunity for me to establish new contacts, initiate new research projects, and help increase links with the Danish business world and policymakers.
"Given the Centre's wealth of experience in conducting research across all areas of corporate governance, the idea is very much that we start with an open mind and work on the most impactful projects."
The objective of the Otto Moensted Foundation is to contribute to the development of Danish trade and industry.
