Hands down the best prof at Baruch. Too much to be said in a small space. Just take him

The best professor. When you take this class you will know everything that you need to know when it comes to job functions at a bank. Before the class I only knew about Sales and Trading and Equity Research but after the class I learned so much more control functions. The most caring professor I have met, I want to be like him when I grow up.

Professor Abbott brought real-world financial experience, making classes engaging. Dynamic lectures and guest speakers kept it interesting. Exams were well-prepared, writing assignments useful, and grading was fair with a good curve. Highly recommend!

Hard and boring class. Very difficult lectures and not easy to follow. Use of financial jargon that prevents you from following the class. SUPER LONG power points. Too much content to study from and does not provide insights of the exam until two days before. Would not recommend taking him.

I enjoyed Ken's class for his passionate, comprehensive approach to US financial market regulations. He distills his experience in finance and risk management into engaging lectures and personally written slide decks. Ken also invites guest lecturers, offering students multiple perspectives on the subject and valuable networking opportunities.

One of if not the best professor at Baruch. You'd be making a serious mistake not taking Ken. Amazing industry experience and insight. Lectures give you a clear understanding of the financial industry and the players in it. Always willing to answer questions in class or about your career search. Papers make you think and understand.
