We welcome submissions on hedge funds, mutual funds and private equity funds, but also, more broadly, papers that seek to improve our understanding of the role of different market intermediaries and the effect of their behaviour on asset prices.
We are pleased to announce our keynote speaker for this year: Prof. Utpal Bhattacharya, Professor of Finance at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
TOPICS: Potential topics include (but are not limited to) institutional investors’ risks and performance; transparency (reporting) and due diligence; financial intermediation activity; hedge fund and broad macroeconomic issues such as systemic risk and contagion; institutional investors’ incentives and activism; portfolio liquidation and liquidity; financial regulation; private equity funds; ETFs; etc.
A limited accommodation and travel grants for presenting doctoral students will be available upon request.
