Dr Tony Moore is Lecturer in Finance and Deputy Director of Studies in the Department of Finance and Accounting, Henley Business School.

Tony was formerly Programme Director of the MRes in Economic History and the MSc in Financial Regulation/Degree Apprenticeship in Regulation and Compliance, a collaboration between Henley and the Financial Conduct Authority.

Previously, he worked as Research Associate on two historical finance projects directed by Professors Adrian Bell and Chris Brooks. The first (2007-2010), funded by the ESRC examined the early sovereign debt market – focusing on the relationships between the Three Edwards (kings of England 1272-1377) and a succession of Italian merchant societies that served as ‘bankers to the Crown’. The second (2011-2014), funded by the Leverhulme Trust, investigated the early history of the Foreign Exchange market in medieval Europe.

Before joining the ICMA Centre, he completed a BA in History, an MPhil in Medieval History and a PhD at the University of Cambridge and worked on a one-year pilot research project at the University of Sheffield looking at cross-channel connections before and after the Loss of Normandy in 1204.

His chief research areas are the history of finance and medieval history – and especially the history of finance during the Middle Ages. Other interests include contemporary perceptions of finance, the social utility of finance and the history of regulation. He is series editor of Palgrave Studies in the History of Finance and associate editor of Essays in Economic and Business History, co-founder of the Giro network for medieval financial historians (@GiroMedieval), a trustee of the Economic and Business History Society and chair of the conference organising committee of the Economic History Society.
