This academic meeting will take place in Paris in January, 2011. Academic sessions and a panel of practitioners will cover recent research, and will debate the future of the hedge fund industry.
We welcome submissions on hedge funds, but also, more broadly, we welcome papers that improve the understanding of the roles and behavioural of market intermediaries and how they affect, and respond to market prices.
Potential topics include: performance of hedge funds during the financial crisis, systemic risk, contagion, interactions between hedge funds activity and broad issues in economics, hedge fund activism, distressed debt, portfolio liquidation and liquidity, financial regulation, etc. But this list is not exhaustive.
The organization will cover accommodation for speakers. We also make available limited accommodation and travelling grants for doctoral students.
