Professor Bhattacharya’s research is on the dark side of finance. He has published in all the top-tier finance journals, and many of the top-tier accounting and economics journals. His research has been featured more than a hundred times in the U.S. media and in the foreign media (including five feature stories in the Economist.) He has been invited to present his research in more than 200 institutions in 31 countries in 5 continents. He wrote a report for and served as a member of the "Task Force to Modernize Securities Regulation in Canada" in 2006. He and his report were featured in a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation investigative story titled "Who Is Guarding Your Money." Legislators in Ontario, Canada, discussed this report. On May 16, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission of the U.S. invited him to present the findings of his Journal of Finance paper that documents cross subsidies in mutual fund families. He is now an official whistleblower.

   Professor Bhattacharya is also an excellent teacher. He was awarded the Trustee Teaching Award by Indiana University twice. He teaches in a different country every summer.
