Call for papers MoFiR 2022

After two virtual editions, the Money and Finance Research Group (MoFiR) is pleased to announce the next workshop will be held in person in Lisbon on 5-6 July, 2022. In the unfortunate case that travel restrictions will be in place, we will revert to an online event.

The organising committee of this small informal workshop invites submissions of high-quality theoretical and empirical research on financial intermediation. Scholars in the fields of banking and finance will meet to discuss current issues in banking, financial stability, bank regulation, financial innovation, financial inclusion, and consumer credit. The workshop will provide an opportunity for presentations and discussions about policy-relevant research in an informal and highly interactive environment.

The keynote speaker will be Murillo Campello (Cornell University and NBER)

This year the workshop will include an additional half-day (4 July, afternoon) on SME financing, with invited speakers.

Travel costs (airfare) for presenters and invited discussants will be reimbursed for an amount up to €500 for domestic travelers and €1,500 for overseas travelers. There is no conference fee, and all meals are included, but participants must cover their own accommodation costs.

DUAL SUBMISSION OPTION: In the submission, authors should indicate if they wish their paper to be considered (at no extra fee) for publication by RCFS under the Dual Submission Program. This is a “no-fault” submission option: if the RCFS reviews the paper and rejects it, the authors may submit it to any SFS journal at a later date as if it was never submitted. See http://sfs.org/dualsubmissionpolicy/ for details.

Papers will be selected by the program committee and corresponding authors will be notified of acceptance by 30 March, 2022. Given capacity constraints and to promote an active discussion, preference will be given to authors who can attend the whole workshop.
