Dr Vy Tran

I am currently a Lecturer in Accounting at LSBU Business School. I hold an MSc in Accounting and Banking (Distinction, 2016) and a PhD in Accounting and Finance (2021), both awarded by Bangor University.

I have extensive teaching experience across the areas of Accounting, Finance and Research Methods.

I welcome applications from prospective PhD students interested in the following areas:

• Financial and Non-Financial Corporate Disclosure

• International Accounting and Corporate Social Responsibility

• Corporate Finance, including both traditional and non-traditional equity issuance.

I am also open to supervising proposals on related topics on a case-by-case basis.

My research interests lie primarily in financial accounting and financial markets. My current work focuses on the application of machine learning–based textual analysis to examine issues relating to financial reporting quality, initial equity offerings and financial market regulation. Looking ahead, my research will extend to exploring financial reporting quality, share price reactions, and corporate social responsibility, with particular attention to comparisons between developed and emerging markets.

I have recently published an article in a peer-reviewed ABS 3* journal.
