The Asian Finance Association (Asian FA) invites submission of research papers in finance to the Association's 2013 annual conference. The conference will be hosted by the Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics (JUFE) during July 15-17, 2013. The conference provides an open platform for finance scholars worldwide to present their recent research and exchange ideas and information on new developments in finance research. We are planning a high-quality and competitive conference. The majority of the sessions will include papers selected through open competition. The papers will be double blind-reviewed by a committee of established researchers. In addition there will be several invited sessions where leading researchers in different areas will be invited to present their latest work. There will also be several junior faculty workshops where junior faculty from different institutions will have an opportunity to present their work and senior researchers will be assigned to discuss such work.
