Our readers may be interested in this call for papers, with an October 31, 2017 deadline.

The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania will host the second annual Wharton Financial Regulation Conference, sponsored by the Zicklin Center for Business Ethics Research and the Wharton Financial Institutions Center, on April 19-20, 2018. We issue a call for papers to any scholars from any discipline—law, economics, political science, history, business, and beyond. The paper presenters, including invited and competitive submissions, should be on any topic related to financial regulation, broadly construed. The conference will include keynote addresses from Kara Stein, Commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission and Lawrence H. Summers, former U.S. Treasury Secretary. Reasonable travel expenses for selected presentations will be covered.

To submit a paper, please include an unpublished manuscript not exceeding 20,000 words and a CV to conference organizers Peter Conti-Brown and David Zaring, by October 31, 2017. Selected presenters will be notified by email by November 15, 2017.
