CALL FOR RESEARCH PROPOSALS 2009 - Deadline June 15, 2009
18 avril 2009
Since 2003, the Europlace Institute of Finance (EIF) fosters, at the French and European levels, existing and potential synergies between research/training groups in the economic and financial fields and professionals including financial intermediaries, investors and asset managers, issuers, market operators. EIF's founders are committed to providing long-term support for such efforts. In 2005, the EIF has been recognized as a public utility foundation.
In 2009 as in previous years, our foundation is issuing a call for research proposals. It is open to all scholars who work on financial problems, regardless of academic discipline.
EIF plans to fund ten research projects, each of which will receive €10,000.
Given the current circumstances, jury members have decided that a significant portion of the projects funded (at least 60%) should reflect the desire among EIF members to encourage research and in-depth academic studies on:
- Market regulation: institutional aspects; regulatory economics and law; the uses of self-regulation
- Market operations: sociology of financial markets (by complexity of instruments, by market organization, etc.); collective attitudes among participants and systemic risk; comparisons of various kinds of organization (over-the-counter markets, organized markets, etc.) and analysis in terms of efficiency, risks, etc.
- Investment: pensions and long-term management; savings behavior and behavioral finance; long-term and environmental finance
Multi-team projects, especially of truly European scope, are of particular interest.
The deadline for applications is June 15, 2009.
We sincerely hope that this program sparks your interest.
