Conferences & Events

The Behavioural Finance Working Group (BFWG) conference is a two-day meeting, jointly organized by the BFWG and Queen Mary University of London, UK. It examines a wide range of behavioural finance topics, ranging between financial decision making and biases, herding, corporate finance, fund management, asset pricing, financial forecasting, volatility, and market sentiment.

This year, the meeting would focus on the way individuals, financial practitioners (e.g. investors and traders) and markets interact with ethics in financial contexts. Thus, we will consider submissions exploring how ethics affect individual investors’ and practitioners’ expectations, decisions and behaviour. Submissions examining these topics, as well as the ethicality of the financial markets, financial regulation and governance, will be particularly welcome.

Registration fee:

Early bird fee - £200 before Friday 13 April 2022

Standard Fee - £300 after Friday 13 April 2022 to 10th of June 2022.

Please note registration fees are non-refundable.
