Biography

CV

Dr. Alejandro Hazera is Vangermeersch Professor of Accounting and the accounting area coordinator nations. His research focuses on examining the relation between bank loan accounting and the onset and magnitude of financial crisis. Currently, he is exploring this relation in the context of the “early” emerging market crises of the 1990s and the more recent crises in developing nations (such as the 2008 U.S. subprime crisis). Hazera has conducted invited lectures on bank accounting and financial crisis at high-level business schools and governmental agencies in countries throughout the spanish-speaking world, including Spain, Mexico, and—as a Fulbright Senior Specialist—Ecuador. He has also taught courses and seminars in these nations.
