Associate Professor of Accounting and Kathryn and Grant Swick Faculty Scholar
Rimmy E. Tomy鈥檚 research primarily relates to regulation and enforcement in the financial sector. Because of the systemic importance of financial institutions to the broader economy, this sector is highly regulated, making enforcement issues of first-order importance. Professor Tomy studies how regulators'听disclosure of enforcement actions and banks' compliance and internal audit systems can influence the enforcement of financial regulation.听She听also studies financial sector enforcement and credit access in developing countries where formal market institutions such as courts, auditing, and financial-reporting systems function poorly.听
Her听work has been published in top journals such as the听Journal of Accounting and Economics,听The听Review of Financial Studies, and the听Journal of Accounting Research.听
Professor Tomy earned her Ph.D. from the Stanford Graduate School of Business. She holds an M.S. in Business Administration from the University of Colorado at Boulder and a B.Sc. from St. Stephen鈥檚 College, University of Delhi. Professor Tomy has previous experience working at Ernst & Young LLP and McKinsey & Company.
