SIXTH ANNUAL CONFERENCE ON CORPORATE FINANCE
November 12-13, 2009
Following the successes of the five previous corporate finance conferences, Olin Business School at Washington University along with its Center for Finance and Accounting Research (CFAR) will be co-hosting the sixth annual conference titled Corporate Finance, November 12-13, 2009, at the Charles F. Knight Center on the Washington University in St. Louis campus.
The topics of interest for the conference are broad, including financial crises, financial markets, financial intermediation, mergers and acquisitions, private equity, corporate control and organization, international issues in corporate finance, capital structure, payout decisions, corporate investment decisions, corporate governance, financial intermediation, and banking. This is not an exhaustive list, and empirical and theoretical papers on these, as well as related topics, are most welcome.
If you wish to have your paper considered for presentation at the conference, please submit the paper electronically by June 30, 2009, by clicking on the Paper Submission tab. There is a $15 submission fee for each manuscript. Questions regarding the submission process should be directed to Christine Hatina (hatina@olin.wustl.edu).
The organizing committee consists of Armando Gomes, Ohad Kadan, Todd Milbourn and Anjan Thakor. Those submitting papers will be informed of the committee's decision in early September.
The conference organizers will pay room and board expenses during the conference for those participating in the conference as a presenter, discussant, or chairperson, but participants are responsible for their own travel expenses. We look forward to an exciting conference and hope you will submit your paper for consideration.
