About

Dr. Degiannakis research interests are in the areas of energy finance (i.e., oil price modelling and forecasting, trading strategies for oil, ETFs on oil, volatility tradeable assets, big data analysis for energy finance), financial econometrics (i.e. ultra-high frequency modelling, ultra-high frequency algorithmic trading, option pricing, financial markets modelling), applied economics (i.e. nowcasting and forecasting for macroeconomic policy) and market risk management (i.e. prediction models for market risk). His research has been granted with multiple scholarships and awards. He has more than 2500 citations according to google scholar and about 27.000 reads according to research gate. Ideas ranks his research in the top 3% of the world (Top 3% Economists in the Last Ten Years), as well as in the 4th position in Greece based on the research conducted during the last 10 years (https://ideas.repec.org/top/top.greece.html#authors).
