Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I want to offer a warm welcome to all conference participants of the 1st International Online Conference on Risk and Financial Management—Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning in Finance (IOCRF2025), which will take place virtually over two days from 17 to 18 June 2025. The conference is sponsored by MDPI and the JRFM (Journal of Risk and Financial Management), a peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on risk management and all areas of empirical finance, management, and applied financial economics.
This conference will feature sessions on the following topics:
· Machine learning in economics and finance;
· AI in economics and finance;
· AI in financial reporting and auditing;
· Financial innovations and technology;
· Future of money: central bank digital currencies, cryptocurrencies, and stablecoins.
This event will be held entirely online, allowing participants from all over the world to participate without concerns regarding travel and related expenditures. This conference format is particularly appropriate and useful because research concerned with AI and big data applications in empirical finance is progressing rapidly. An electronic conference provides a platform for rapid and direct exchanges about the latest research findings and novel ideas.
Participation in, as well as attendance of this online conference, is free. Participants will have the opportunity to examine, explore, and critically engage with issues and advances in these areas. We hope to facilitate discussions and exchanges within the community.
Outstanding contributions from each session will be eligible for conference awards. Moreover, instead of limiting presentations to a live poster session, all IOCRF2025 participants have the opportunity to upload and display their research in the form of a poster at the poster gallery on the conference website. Therefore, all participants with poster submissions for the poster gallery are now eligible for awards! Please click HERE for more instructions on poster and oral submissions.
Lastly, we would like to express our sincere gratitude for your unwavering support and participation, and to wish this conference every success.
Prof. Dr. Thanasis Stengos
Guest Editor
