    Charles M. Jones

    We are deeply saddened that Charles M. Jones, a leading finance expert and longtime Analysis Group affiliate, passed away on December 15, 2022, following a long illness.

    Professor Jones spent nearly 30 years on the faculty of Columbia Business School, holding the title of Robert W. Lear Professor of Finance and Economics since 2008. He was an award-winning teacher and a widely recognized authority on a variety of finance-related topics, including the structure of securities markets, market liquidity, and trading costs. He was also an experienced expert witness, testifying in cases involving spoofing, securities fraud, and market manipulation.

    “Charles was not only an exceptional economist, he was a wonderful person and a pleasure to work with,” said Managing Principal Gaurav Jetley, who frequently supported Professor Jones’s expert assignments. “I will very much miss working with him.”
