About

Overview

Dr Zsófia Kräussl has a wide-ranging, interdisciplinary academic background. She obtained her PhD in information systems management and requirements engineering in 2011, at the Free University Amsterdam.

Her over-riding research interest is innovation and digital transformation in Finance – with a particular focus on investigating valuation fundamentals. Zsofia also studies the socio-economic and performance effects of data as an emerging asset class. Her empirical cases relate to marketplace lending, i.e. how digitisation affects the traditional lending business.

Zsófia is also a dedicated lecturer and educator. She designed and established an MSc study programme in Digital Transformation in Finance at the University of Luxembourg. She is a visiting scholar at the Center for Studies in Higher Education (CSHE) at UC Berkeley.

Her academic career has fostered an interest in researching higher education – with a focus on curriculum design, accessing and analysing the performance effects of the factors that shape study programme design and to concrete curriculum development at universities.
