Marcelo Ortiz M.

I’m an Assistant Professor at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, affiliated with the Barcelona School of Economics and the Barcelona School of Management.

My research lies at the intersection of Accounting and Corporate Governance. I’m fortunate that my research has been published in leading journals, including three publications in journals of the FT 50 List.

I also hold a Ramon y Cajal Fellowship from the Spanish Ministry for Science and Innovation.

I co-organize the Barcelona Accounting Summer Workshops.
