“My goal is to transform how economic interconnections are understood, experienced, and used. My research will not only advance academic frontiers but also reshape policy conversations and industry by making the invisible structure of the economy visible, tangible, and actionable – for scholars, regulators, and citizens alike.”
Al Guindy of the Sprott School of Business uses Business Analytics techniques, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, to extract business insights from large financial datasets such as social media, business media, and the Bitcoin blockchain. He seeks to understand the intersecting relationship of businesses, media and the economy.
Modelling the economy as a network of connected entities, his research uncovers the underlying network structure of the economy and its evolution over time. It examines what factors affect network formation and evolution, as well as how information and noise are transmitted within the economy. His research program will also model the network structure of the Bitcoin blockchain, offering unprecedented insights into the Bitcoin network and its interactions with social, economic and technical trends. Additionally, he studies the prevalence and impact of robo-generated media content in financial markets.
