The China International Conference in Finance (CICF) provides an open platform to bring together scholars worldwide to present current research and stimulate exchanges on new developments in finance. Since its launch in 2002, CICF has grown to be one of the leading conferences in financial research in the world. The next conference will be held from June 26 to June 29, 2026, in Hong Kong.
The conference follows the format of major international conferences. In addition to the conference submission, authors are also pleased to have a dual-submission option with the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis (JFQA). Accepted papers under this dual submission will appear in a special CICF issue of the JFQA.
All submitted papers will be selected by the Program Committee consisting of a panel of international scholars. Authors are invited to submit completed papers in PDF format. Submitted papers should not have been accepted (or conditionally accepted) for publication at a journal, and should not have been accepted for presentation at a previous CICF conference.
