Please find attached the call for the 8th Annual Darden International
Finance Conference. This year's theme is "Major Players in Emerging
Markets:

The Role of Investors, Borrowers, Governments, and Non-Governmental
Organizations", which will be interpreted broadly to include the
following areas:

* Sovereign wealth funds, hedge funds and private equity

* The effect of governmental and non-governmental institutions on
public policy, financial markets, and business strategy

* Design and impact of capital market institutions and securities
exchanges

* Institutional investing

* Global linkages, financial crises and contagion

* The impact of inflation on financial stability and markets

* Corporate governance, transparency, and shareholder rights

* Capital market liberalization and financial development

* Government bond markets

This year we will host two versions of the conference. One, at Darden,
will be March 19-20, which unfortunately might conflict with the Spring
IFM meeting. The other, in Singapore, will be May 7-8.

 

Please see the draft call for details on the submission procedure,
submission deadline (Nov 26), stipends, etc. If you do submit, please
let me know.

 

Best,

 

Frank
