Dear Research Colleagues -
I am sorry to share the news that Edward Kane, a long-serving research
associate in the NBER's Corporate Finance program, passed away last
Thursday. He was the James F. Cleary Professor of Finance, emeritus, at
Boston College's Carroll School of Management.
Kane was an expert on banking, deposit insurance, financial
intermediation, and government regulation of the financial sector more
generally. He served as president of the American Finance Association
and was a founding member of the Shadow Financial Regulatory Committee.
Kane received his undergraduate degree from Georgetown and his Ph.D.
from MIT. He taught at Princeton, Iowa State, and The Ohio State
University before moving to Boston College in 1992. He was an active
contributor to the NBER and to many other research communities, and he
will be deeply missed.
Jim Poterba
