Kevin Haeberle
Postdoctoral Research Scholar
Kevin Haeberle, an Officer of Research with the Columbia Law School faculty, works with the Program on the Law and Economics of Capital Markets. In addition to pursuing his research agenda relating to capital markets regulation, his focus is on helping the Program develop the Capital Markets Regulation course as well as the work-in-progress of what the Program hopes will be the seminal treatise on the topic. He is also currently drafting an article that applies lessons learned from market microstructure to shed light on the diversion of retail and similar uninformed-trader orders away from price-setting exchanges and similar trading venues and impact of its ripples on key capital markets actors. Kevin will work with the Program through July 2014, at which time he aims to begin as a law professor, teaching Securities Regulation, Capital Markets Regulation, and Corporations.
