CONFERENCE ORGANIZERS: Jonathan Batten, Gady Jacoby and Zhenyu Wu

SUBMISSION DEADLINE FOR RESEARCH PROPOSALS: February 28, 2022

TENTATIVE PUBLICATION DATE: Fall 2023

OVERVIEW: The main goal of this special theme conference is to encourage comparative studies that deepen our knowledge of finance by focusing on the impact of cross-country factors. As this JIFMIM special theme prompts cross-country studies, we seek theoretical and empirical papers that shed light on new knowledge to enrich the literature on credit, banking, asset pricing, market liquidity, corporate finance, corporate governance, and entrepreneurial finance in an international context. We invite submissions of papers related to the main topics of this special theme.

PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: As in previous years, the 2022 CCPF Conference will follow a two-stage procedure in order to ensure the quality of this special theme publication. At the first stage, we invite submissions of two-page research proposals (by January 31, 2022) that will be screened by the guest editors. A selected number of proposals will be chosen for presentation at the CCPF conference to take place both online and on-site (with one location in Chengdu China, and/or another location to be announced) on June 23-25, 2022. A full version of the working paper is due by May 15, 2022, to allow the discussant enough time to review the paper. At the second stage, the CCPF Scientific Committee will choose selected papers from those presented at the June conference (notification by July 31, 2022). Authors of short-listed papers will be invited to revise and present at a Special Theme Symposium to be held in December 2022. These papers will be considered for publication by JIFMIM. The ‘revise-and-resubmit’ process will begin on February 1, 2023, and final notification of acceptance to the special theme will be sent during summer 2023.

Note: Papers that are not chosen to be considered by JIFMIM may be invited for submission with Emerging Markets Review, Finance Research Letters, or Risk Management. All these three journals are on the SSCI list.
