Viktoria Muthsam

Vikt­oria re­ceived her Bach­elor's de­gree in Busi­ness Ad­min­is­tra­tion from WU Vi­enna in 2016. She earned her Mas­ter's de­gree in Fin­ance and Ac­count­ing in 2018 from the same uni­versity. Dur­ing her Mas­ter's pro­gram she stud­ied at Tu­lane Uni­versity in New Or­leans, US for one semester. In the last year of her Mas­ter's pro­gram she worked as re­search assist­ant in the field of risk man­age­ment and teacher assist­ant in the field of cor­por­ate fin­ance at WU Vi­enna.

Her re­search in­terests also in­clude these two areas of fin­ance. In her Mas­ter thesis she ex­amined the em­pir­ic­ally evid­enced puzzles in the con­text of IPOs such as IPO un­der­pri­cing, the oc­cur­rence of IPO waves and the long-term un­der­per­form­ance of stocks after the ini­tial pub­lic of­fer­ing. In her spare time Vikt­oria en­joys per­form­ing vari­ous sport activ­it­ies as ski­ing, hik­ing, and bal­let as well as trav­el­ling, and play­ing the pi­ano.
