The Cambridge Endowment for Research in Finance (CERF) welcomes submissions for its 2024 Corporate Finance Theory Symposium to be held in Cambridge, UK, in person, on 13 and 14 September 2024. The symposium covers all areas of theoretical corporate finance, including theory papers that combine corporate finance theory with a related area such as banking, market micro-structure, asset pricing, and financial accounting.

The format of the 2024 symposium will be similar in nature to previous years’ editions (Previous Conferences).  We expect to have about 9 papers (each with a discussant) and one keynote speech.

The Keynote speaker for the 2024 Cambridge Corporate Finance Theory Symposium is Paolo Fulghieri (University of North Carolina).

There is a paper submission fee of £50 per paper. You can pay this via the payment link within the form which will open in a new window. Once you have paid the fee, please return to the submission form to submit your paper. 

NB please ensure you upload and submit the paper after completing the payment. 

Please read carefully before submitting your paper: Further information & Requirements.
