Call for Papers, Inquire Europe, Spring seminar, 23-25 March 2025, Brussels
Conference dates
23 Mar 2025 - 25 Mar 2025
Location
Brussels
Description
As part of its activities, the Institute for Quantitative Investment Research Europe (Inquire Europe), organizes biannual seminars. The spring seminar will take place in Brussels on March 23–25, 2025. A major part of the seminar will be devoted to:
“Machines and Data in Future Quant Investing”
This seminar is motivated by the developments of new datasets and new technologies (such as large language models and machine learning), innnovating quant investing and transforming the asset management industry. We welcome papers that address how to structure long-term portfolios and quantitatively assess risks using machines and data, broadly defined. Potential topics of interest include but are not limited to alternative data, big data, model algorithms, return prediction, portfolio construction, trading & trading costs, large scale computing, and man versus machine.
Authors, both academics and from the financial industry, are invited to submit papers for presentation at the seminar. Papers should have a quantitative background, with empirical testing of models, or other practical relevance and applications. We also encourage submissions of papers on subtopics in the broad area of institutional investing and asset management that do not fit the main topic for the seminar.
The audience of the Inquire seminar consists of financial professionals, mostly asset managers, all with experience in quantitative analysis of financial markets. A typical presentation will last around 30 minutes, followed by a 30-minute discussion with the audience. The Program Committee of Inquire Europe will select the papers for presentation.
Submit completed papers by Tuesday October 8, 2024 online: https://www.formdesk.com/inquireeurope/call_for_papers_Brussels_2025
The selection will be based on complete papers. Please include a cover page with title, author names, e-mail addresses, and phone numbers in the document.
Inquire Europe will pay the travel (economy class) and lodging expenses for the speakers at the meeting. There is a prize of €4.000 available for the best paper presented at the meeting. The Prize Committee of INQUIRE Europe will select the best paper.
We are looking forward to receiving your submissions.
