He is currently working on the research project FINNOV - Finance, Innovation and Growth within the European Union-funded FINNOV project, which is aimed at understanding the relationship between changing financial markets, innovation dynamics, and economic performance. Henry's research focuses on financial decisions by firms, financial constraints and the impact of financing decisions on innovative activity and venture capital fund pricing. He has previously worked on several projects concerned with the consequences of private equity financing in small and large companies, for example, on collaborative research reports for the German Federal Ministry of Finance and the German State Media Authorities.
Henry has earned his PhD in finance (Dr. rer. pol.) from Technical University Munich for his dissertation on the pricing of listed private equity vehicles, where he studied their risk and return characteristics and the feasibility of pricing fund shares on the basis of net asset values. He obtained an M.A. in General Management (major in finance) from Witten/Herdecke University. Henry has taught financial management courses to undergraduate and master's students at Technical University Munich and continues to supervise students there.
