Papers already accepted
Papers that have been accepted will be included in the conference program if authors confirm their participation until December 20, 2020.
Submissions Guidelines for the Second Call for Papers
Papers must be submitted in English, as this is the official language of the PFN2021 Conference.
The submission is a two step process: first you submit the paper and authors' details and then, after receiving the confirmation email, you need to submit the anonymized paper in a pdf format file. You can start your submission here.
Only papers submitted trough this platform will be considered.
Papers will be subject to a double-blind review process by the Scientific Committee. Confirmation of acceptance or rejection is going to be communicated on 31st March 2021 and mailed to the corresponding e-mail address of the contacting author.
At least one of the authors of an accepted paper must register as a participant in the 11th Finance Conference of the Portuguese Finance Network (PFN), until 20th May 2021. Please take into consideration that once a paper is included in the programme, the author should present it in the conference or officially notify the Organizing Committee of its withdrawal. Additionally, by registering in the conference, the authors agrees to serve as a discussant of one paper of his/her own area of interest, if needed.
Each individual is limited to one personal appearance on the programme as a presenting author. This policy precludes acceptance of papers for more than one presentation. In other words, an author can submit and present only one paper. However, a presenter can always be a nonpresenting co-author on additional papers.
All matters due to submission and papers will be handled by the Chairperson: Manuel Rocha Armada pfn2020@eeg.uminho.pt
