Description:
The Society for Financial Studies is hosting the seventh annual Review of Corporate Finance Studies Winter Conference on February 17 and 18, 2024. This will be a high-quality conference with a limited number of papers. Our aim is to bring together a select group of top-quality researchers to present and discuss cutting-edge papers in the field. We welcome submissions in all areas of corporate finance, financial intermediation, and household finance.
The sessions will be arranged by the RCFS Editors (Andrew Ellul, Isil Erel, Michelle Lowry, and Robert
Marquez) and Associate Editors. We welcome both empirical and theoretical papers in corporate finance,
financial intermediation and household finance.Special Session on “Politics and Corporate Power”
We plan to have a special session at the conference on the theme of “Politics and Corporate Power.” At this stage, we are calling for Registered Reports on subjects related to this specific theme as it can be applied in the areas of corporate finance, household finance, and financial intermediation. Possible topics include the effects of corporate political power on consumers, labor organizations, and communities; firm-level and industry-level effects of corporate lobbying and political donations; firms’ responses to regulation and regulatory costs; risks and opportunities arising from shareholder activism on social, political and environmental issues; rent-seeking and crony capitalism issues around the world; and the effects of antitrust legislation and enforcement on firms’ actions.
After the conference, a small set of selected proposals will be granted in-principle acceptance for publication in the RCFS after a formal review process.
