Dr Siming Liu
Senior Lecturer

I joined Brunel University in 2013 as a Lecturer in Finance and Accounting and was promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2019. My primary research interests lie in accounting, finance, and health economics. I have published in leading 4* journals in the field of health economics. The core impact of my accounting research is its potential to shape accounting policies for SMEs. This work has gained recognition, with citations in esteemed 3* journals, public policy papers, and presentations at practitioners’ conferences, highlighting its relevance and influence in both academic and practical contexts. My research also focuses on market-based accounting, particularly examining how financial markets respond to accounting information. 

Over the years, I have developed and delivered a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate modules and led in designing the BSc Accountancy programme. 

Before joining academia, I qualified as an ACCA-certified accountant and gained valuable industry experience as an auditor at KPMG. My professional background and experiences allow me to bridge the gap between theory and practice.
