APRA research push under new leader
APRA has appointed Katrina Ellis as its new head of research under plans to broaden the scope of its applied research team. She is currently Associate Professor of Finance at the University of California.
Dr Ellis replaces Neil Esho, who has been seconded to Switzerland to the Basel Committee for Banking Supervision.
Formerly from Adelaide, Dr Ellis will lead APRA’s applied research team in areas such as credit risk in housing lending and superannuation trustee behaviour. APRA says it intends to “grow and broaden” research under her watch.
