Call for papers MoFiR 2023

The Money and Finance Research Group (MoFiR) is pleased to announce the next workshop will be held in Naples on 6-7 July 2023. 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 Vasso Ioannidou (Bayes Business School (formerly Cass) and CEPR)


Accommodation costs (two nights) for presenters and invited discussants will be reimbursed. There is no conference fee, and all meals are included.

The deadline for submission is 6pm (GMT), Sunday 15 January 2023. If you have any difficulties registering for this meeting, please email meets@cepr.org. for assistance (with subject header “12th MoFiR Workshop on Banking”).

DUAL SUBMISSION OPTION: In the submission, authors should indicate if they wish their paper to be considered (at no extra fee) for publication by Review of Corporate Finance Studies 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 2023. Given capacity constraints and to promote an active discussion, preference will be given to authors who can attend the whole workshop.
