Montague (Monty) Osteen and the Review of Asset Pricing Studies will hold the 6th Fixed Income and Financial Institutions Conference (FIFI) on the University of South Carolina campus in Columbia, SC on April 27-28, 2018. The conference aims to bring top researchers to foster a dialogue on important issues in fixed income and financial institutions. Confirmed participants include Sumit Agarwal, Wayne Ferson, Ross Levine, Mitchell Petersen, and Jay Ritter.

PARTNERSHIP WITH THE REVIEW OF ASSET PRICING STUDIES: The 6th FIFI Conference and the Review of Asset Pricing Studies (RAPS) announce a dual submission process. At your choice, your paper submission to the FIFI will also be considered for publication by RAPS. This is a "no-fault" submission option, which means that if RAPS decides to review your paper and rejects it, you may submit it to the journal at a later date as if the paper was never submitted. The dual submission also comes with no additional charge. For more information about RAPS and its dual submission process please visit http://sfsraps.org

PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: We welcome submissions of high-quality research on all topics related to fixed income or financial institutions. Please send electronic submissions of unpublished papers to fifi@moore.sc.edu. Please mention RAPS submission interest in your email if you want your paper to be considered for RAPS dual submission.

A submission fee of $40 can be paid at https://2018callforpapers.eventbrite.com

Submission Deadline: November 23, 2017. Authors will be notified by January 31, 2018.
