Hong Zhang joined INSEAD as an Assistant Professor of Finance in 2004. His research covers asset pricing, investments (especially related to mutual funds and hedge funds), and international finance.
Hong's recent paper, “Estimating the Dynamics of Mutual Fund Alphas and Betas,” co-authored with Harry Mamaysky and Matt Spiegel, was cited by The New York Times (May 18, 2003) and Financial Advisor Magazine (June 2004) as to "have solved a big problem for mutual fund rating systems." The same paper had also been listed on SSRN's Top Ten download list for "AFA 2004 San Diego Meetings All Time Hits" and "European Finance Association Meetings (EFA) (Archive) All Time Hits." Hong's other work examines asset pricing anomalies, international momentum, and investor overreactions. His research is published in top finance journals such as the Review of Financial Studies and the Review of Finance.
Hong received his PhD in Finance from Yale School of Management in December 2004. Prior to studying finance, he studied physics in New York University and Fudan University and had won a national gold medal at 8th Chinese Physics Olympics.
