Shaun Bond is the Frank Finn Professor of Finance and Deputy Head of School (AFIS) in the UQ Business School at the University of Queensland. His research primarily focuses on real estate finance and financial economics, examining how capital market forces, spatial dynamics, and economic fundamentals interact to shape outcomes in property markets. Through this interdisciplinary lens, Professor Bond has contributed to understanding property cycles, asset pricing, and investment strategies, helping decision-makers better evaluate real estate risk and return.

Professor Bond began his academic career in the Department of Land Economy at the University of Cambridge, where he applied rigorous economic theory and quantitative methods to spatial problems. He subsequently served as the West Shell Professor of Real Estate and Director of the Real Estate Center at the University of Cincinnati, overseeing applied research initiatives, strategic outreach, and industry partnerships. During this period, he led collaborative projects aimed at bridging academic research with professional practice, yielding practical insights for investors, policymakers, and urban planners.

In addition to his appointments at Cambridge and Cincinnati, Professor Bond has held visiting positions at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), Heidelberg University, the Pennsylvania State University, and the George Washington University. Recognized for his innovative scholarship, he has published in prominent finance and real estate journals, contributing to broader discussions on how spatial economics and finance intersect.

Professor Bond holds a PhD and an MPhil in Economics from the University of Cambridge, following an undergraduate degree in Economics (awarded with First Class Honours) from the University of Queensland.
