Frankfurt, Germany, August 30th, 2010
Advances in information and communication technologies have made a significant impact on the financial services industry. Electronic trading systems, algorithmic trading and the automation of markets have profoundly altered the way markets work. The impact of technology has put pressure on all market participants and trading venues to adjust to and keep up with these technological advances, which has impacted competition, regulation and investment in these markets. FinanceCom 2010 invites papers that investigate the impact and resulting opportunities of technology, information, and associated areas on the financial services industry and financial markets.
After successful FinanceCom workshops in Sydney, Regensburg, Montreal, and Paris FinanceCom 2010 will be co-located with EFA 2010 in Frankfurt, Germany on August 29th and 30th, 2010. The workshop is open to multiple disciplines including information systems, finance, economics, and computer science but also behavioral sciences. We welcome research from any of those disciplines as well as work, which fits the scope of the workshop, from other disciplines.
FinanceCom 2010 will accept completed but unpublished research papers. Also papers should not have been accepted for publication at the time of submission. Because of the multi-disciplinary approach FinanceCom will offer two submission options to open the workshop to different research communities. Authors can either present a contribution as a working paper without publication or as a contribution for publication in proceedings. FinanceCom will not assume copyright for work accepted for presentation that has been submitted as a working paper.
