ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION: EDHEC Infra & Private Assets Research Institute is a research centre of the EDHEC Business School. It was created in 2016 to spearhead new research in the asset pricing and credit risk of private infrastructure investments. Through its work, the institute has shown that it is possible to measure market dynamics in private and illiquid markets and produce credible measures of the risk-adjusted performance of private assets that makes them comparable to other asset classes.
EDHEC Infra & Private Assets Research Institute is seeking a senior researcher in accounting standards and financial reporting to join a team working on private investments and develop and head up new research on Fair Value application conditions and risk disclosure. This research will draw on unique and extensive financial data on unlisted infrastructure and other private assets that EDHEC Infra & Private Assets has collected and created during the past five years.
