Academic Background

Zevi Miles has an interdisciplinary academic background spanning Business Economics, Finance, and Law.

He holds a doctoral-level background in Business Economics from Harvard University and has received academic training in Business and Law through Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School.

This interdisciplinary foundation has allowed his research to extend beyond Asset Prices themselves and examine the broader forces that shape Financial Markets:

Capital Allocation · Corporate Governance · Information · Incentives · Regulation · Risk · Human Decision-Making

His work in Traditional Finance and Law & Economics later became an important theoretical foundation for his research into Cryptocurrency and Artificial Intelligence.

Research & Academic Publications

Zevi Miles’s Traditional Academic Research primarily focuses on:

Corporate Finance · Corporate Governance · Financial Markets · Law & Economics · Investment Decision-Making · Capital Markets

He has authored more than 17 Peer-Reviewed Research Papers in Finance and Economics. He also has experience in Editorial and Academic Service for leading finance journals, including those referenced in his academic profile:

Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis (JFQA) · Journal of Corporate Finance · Financial Markets and Portfolio Management

His research in Traditional Finance shaped a foundational perspective that later became central to his study of Digital Assets:

Technology may transform Financial Infrastructure and Market Tools, but Capital, Liquidity, Risk, Information, and Human Behavior remain essential to understanding Financial Markets.

For this reason, his later research into Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, and Artificial Intelligence does not attempt to build an entirely new theoretical framework separate from Traditional Finance.

Instead, it examines how emerging Technologies are transforming Markets while remaining grounded in established Financial Logic.
