Call for Papers – closed
The Cambridge Endowment for Research in Finance (CERF) welcomes submissions for its 2019 Corporate Finance Theory Symposium to be held in Cambridge UK, Clare College, 13-14 September 2019.
The symposium covers all areas of theoretical corporate finance, including theory papers that combine corporate finance theory with a related area such as banking, market micro-structure, asset pricing, and financial accounting.
The format of the 2019 symposium will be similar in nature to previous years’ editions (Previous Conferences). We expect to have about 9 papers (each with a discussant) and one keynote speech. This year’s keynote speaker will be Itay Goldstein , Joel S. Ehrenkranz Family Professor, Professor of Finance, Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.
