"Why do children dread mathematics? Because of the wrong approach. Because it is looked at as a subject."

Hi, I’m Gerhard Kling


I am a Chair in Finance at the University of Aberdeen. For 18 years, I have worked in higher education (SOAS, University of Southampton, UWE, Utrecht University). As a Practice Specialist in Corporate Finance at McKinsey & Company, I mainly focused on firm valuation and M&As. Since January 2022, I have been the Director & Secretary of YUNIKARN LTD, an educational content creation and consulting firm. Our YouTube channel, YUNIKARN, provides free courses in data science using Python and Stata. I have provided consulting services for McKinsey (2007-2010), HMRC (2012-2015), Industrial Bank (China) (2013), Brunello Cucinelli (2018), China State Shipbuilding Corporation (2019), Third Bureau of Supervision of SASAC (2019), and Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia (ERIA) (2021-2022). I have a background in economics (PhD, BSc/MSc), mathematics (BSc/MSc) and programming (Python, C/C++, MATLAB, Stata etc.). My current interests focus on machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), and their applications in FinTech. I have worked as principal or co-investigator on several large-scale projects in FinTech (ESRC-NSFC: GBP 0.5 million), IoT (FP7: EUR 2,6 million), and satellite technology (FP6: EUR 11,9 million).
