Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Accelerating progress in machine learning, deep learning, and generative AI is transforming the financial sector across trading, portfolio management, banking, payments, and insurance. This Special Issue invites submissions on AI in finance that combine methodological rigor with demonstrable impact. Submissions may include deployed or near-deployment applications, high-fidelity simulations, and industry–academic collaborations; works addressing governance and assurance (e.g., robustness, fairness, privacy, and accountability); and surveys that consolidate current practice and identify research frontiers.
