Introducing BIGFI: How big data is used in research and can help students

CBS recently opened the Center for Big Data in Finance (BIGFI). As a “center of excellence” sponsored by the Danish National Research Foundation, BIGFI is one of Denmark’s premier research environments across all fields.

The center collects numerous large data sets to provide data-driven solutions to major challenges in finance such as sustainable finance, household behavior, and security market risk and return.

In this talk, Lasse Heje Pedersen, Center Director, will outline the center’s research activities and explain how the center’s data is being opened up to the entire CBS community via an easy-to-access database.
