Amani Kouassi

I am Amani F. Kouassi, originally from Cote d'Ivoire, a French-speaking country located in West Africa. But now I am bilingual, English-French. I was relocated from France to California back in June 2012, and I have been a US citizen since June 2016. I am in my second year of a PhD in FinTech. My research interests are FinTech and climate finance, FinTech and banking market structure, and corporate finance. I will extend my research to mathematical finance, blockchain technology, AI and digital currencies. Since October 2025, I have been an adjunct teaching professor of finance (personal finance for undergraduates at WPI). After graduation, I intend to be a professor of finance at WPI; otherwise, I will work for banking or government.
