These lunch meetings run Mondays during term time where CERF Fellows and the Finance and Accounting group in CJBS meet for informal talks and discussions. This initiative, meant to spread information and awareness of ongoing research within the area of finance in the University of Cambridge, has proven to be very popular and a welcome opportunity to discuss various academic questions in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. Some weeks, these lunches feature a talk, other weeks, just a buffet lunch. The lunches usually run from 13:00-14:00, unless otherwise stated. Please contact cerf@jbs.cam.ac.uk for more information.
