Theme: New Directions in Modeling International Finance
This special issue of Research in International Business and Finance will bring diverse perspectives on the failures of modern finance theory with a view to proposing constructive, but more importantly, practical, innovations in theory and practice. The special issue will focus on rigorous mathematical/statistical/computational advances in the modeling of the topics identified by authors.
In particular, areas to be explored are
• Macro-finance,
• Macro-prudential regulation,
• Extensions, new constructions, and/or destructions of modern finance theory
• Frontiers of empirical finance
Symposium. The special issue will be preceded by a symposium in November 24 and 25, 2011 on the same topic in Dromoland Castle, Ireland. 6 weeks afterward, all papers will be submitted to RIBAF electronically. Papers to be published in the special issue of RIBAF must be presented at the symposium.
