2022 GSU-RFS Fintech Conference
September 22-23, 2023 | Buckhead Center of Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA
Overview
In recent years, FinTech, or financial technologies, have been rapidly developing and reshaping business practices and the financial services industry. In parallel, emerging technologies, e.g., machine learning and big data methods, have also been increasingly applied in the study of financial economics. Such developments have generated considerable interests in the new and important research area of FinTech and emerging technologies.
The Department of Finance at the Robinson College of Business, the Georgia FinTech Academy, and Review of Financial Studies jointly hosted the third annual Georgia State FinTech Conference on February 18-19, 2022. The conference was highly selective. Out of approximately 300 high-quality paper submissions, we selected 12 papers for the program.
