Konari Uchida 교수의 연구실은 일본 기업의 거버넌스 구조와 자금조달 방식, 특히 주주 친화적 의사결정, 기업 지배구조의 변화, 그리고 투자자 행동에 중점을 두고 있습니다. 기업의 레버리지와 주식옵션 사용의 관계, 활동주의 투자자(Activist Investors)의 영향, 은행 연계 벤처캐피탈의 역할, 온라인 투자자 행동 등 다양한 측면에서 일본 특유의 기업문화와 금융 시스템의 상호작용을 분석하고 있습니다. 특히 기업의 이사회 규모 축소, 주주 가치 제고, 정보 비대칭 문제에 대한 기업의 자율적 대응 방식 등 실질적인 경영 전략의 효과성에 대한 깊이 있는 연구를 수행하고 있습니다.
