Banking Symposium

27th Banking Symposium 2024: Generative AI in Finance (September 25, 2024)

Call for papers

Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) will significantly impact and change the financial and banking sector. Large language models (LLMs) are at the forefront of this evolution, transforming financial services and creating substantial opportunities. With the sharp increase in commercial applications, economic, societal, and existential risks associated with the technology also receive more attention.

The aim of the 27th Banking Symposium (September 25, 2024) is to bring together active researchers and practitioners interested in the transformation in banking and finance through GAI. We invite the submission (Call for papers) of empirical, theoretical, and experimental papers from all fields of banking and finance that focus on opportunities, risks, and use cases of generative AI. Early-stage work is encouraged. The final program will include several academic presentations and insights from invited experts from the industry.

There is no submission fee. We will reimburse travel costs and accommodation for presenters.The paper submission deadline is May 15, 2024. Please submit your papers to banking@uni-due.de. Paper selection will be finalized by the end of June 2024. Please direct further questions to banking@uni-due.de.

The symposium directly preceeds the 30th DGF Jahrestagung in Aachen (September 26-28, 2024). It is possible to reach Aachen by train (direct connection) within 90 minutes.

Dresden University of Technology is organizing a Paper Development Workshop together with Carol Alexander from University of Sussex and Denis Schweizer from Concordia University. We invite interested scholars to apply to present and discuss their current research on Generative AI in Finance. The workshop will take place in person on July 5, 2024 in Dresden.

The aim of the paper development workshop is to feature articles at the forefront of Generative AI research across a broad spectrum of interest including, but not limited to, corporate finance, fintech, digital finance, asset pricing, financial stability, banking, risk management, portfolio management, behavioral finance, personal finance, and real estate — all within the context of viable existing or potential future applications of Generative AI.

The workshop is associated with a Special Issue in the Journal of Banking and Finance on Generative AI in Finance and aims to provide authors with valuable insights from the editorial team prior to submission. Acceptance for presentation at the Paper Development Workshop is not a prerequisite for submission to the Special Issue and in no way guarantees acceptance to the Special Issue.
