WAPFIN@STERN 2023 - CALL FOR PAPERS
The conference will be on September 29 and 30, 2023 at NYU Stern. Attendance is open to anyone untenured working in finance. We will have one day of polished work (Friday), and one day of early stage work (Saturday). Friday will be open to the public. Saturday will be restricted to the untenured participants on the program.
Invited senior faculty will participate in the Friday session, which will conclude with a senior advice panel over cocktails. While the exact list may change, for the panel we have confirmed Anna Cieslak (Duke), Yael Hochberg (Rice), Heather Tookes (Yale), and Annette Vissing-Jorgensen (Federal Reserve Board). Our own Jenny Carpenter will moderate the panel as in previous years.
You can submit papers for the Friday session, the Saturday session, or both. Please submit your paper here later than June 1, 2023. Friday submissions should consist of a draft paper, just like a normal conference. Saturday submissions should consist of a document (Word or PDF) containing your name, school affiliation, and 3-5 sentences about your project. It should be at a very early stage (ideally, no circulated draft yet). The selection committee will consist of Cecilia, Shan, and Theresa.
A key part of the conference is to allow everyone to connect and get to know each other, so we expect all presenters to attend the entire conference.
