Can anyone suggest for me a topic in Finance for PhD research?

Some
current topics of interest in Finance are auction and game theory; gambling and sports
(University of Salford); employee satisfaction and employee working environment; corporate
culture; corporate and CEO governance; and corporate social responsibility and "green"
responsibility (ECSP EuropeSchool). Other topics of interest in Finance include business failure
and bond ratings; health and social well-being; employee motivation and green behavior; and
supply chain factors (University of Salford). 

One way to discover topics for
Ph.D. research is to examine the areas of research being done by professors at various
universities. As with the University of Salford in Greater Manchester, England, professors tend
to publicly list their areas of research interest and their latest research publications. These
can be used by Ph.D. candidates to inspire ideas and trigger areas of interest.


Following the global financial collapse based on credit-rated mortgage derivatives and
as a result of such things as the expansion of gaming theory, the burgeoning needs and costs in
healthcare, and the attention given to corporate culture consequent of CEOs' and millennials'
behaviors, relevant new topics in finance have come to the fore for the purpose of examining
these areas of finance.

[The topics I cited above come from the publicly
described research of Professor David Forrest, Dr. Jia Liu, and Professor Hassan Yazdifar of the
University of Salford, UK, and Professor Alberta Di Giuli, Professor Michael Troege, and
Professor Franck Bancel of ECSP Europe Business School.]
