 	Early submissions are highly encouraged. Authors will be notified of the

 	Selected best papers will be considered for publication in a Special
Issue of the Journal of Financial Services Research (JFSR). Please see
below for the rules.
The rules for the solicitation process by the JFSR are as follows:
 	Author(s) must expressly indicate interest in consideration by the JFSR
in their submission email. The paper must not be under review at another
journal or the JFSR, nor can it be considered if previously rejected by the
JFSR.
 	The Guest Editors for the Special Issue, namely Claudia Girardone,
Sotirios Kokas and Steven Ongena, will invite high quality papers among the
accepted papers after the conference presentations for possible publication
in the JFSR. Submission fees will be waived for these invited conference
papers. Papers of the author(s) accepting this invitation will undergo a
normal review process that maintains the JFSR’s high-quality publication
standards.
 	If an invited paper is subsequently rejected, its author(s) will have the
option to submit a future version of their paper to the JFSR without
prejudice.
 	While under consideration by the Conference and the JFRS, a paper may not
be submitted to another journal (or the JFSR) until the author(s) has been
notified of the outcome.
