DEADLINE: 10 SEPTEMBER 2023

The European Capital Markets Institute (ECMI) is calling for the submission of research papers in the area of capital markets and their functioning.

A committee of academics and international experts will select the best paper and award the author(s) a EUR 5,000 prize and the opportunity to present the findings at the 2023 ECMI Annual Conference that will take place in October/November 2023.

  • The competitiveness and attractiveness of EU financial actors and European capital markets
  • Open strategic autonomy in financial services
  • The Capital Markets Union as a driver of economic recovery and resilience (e.g. Listing Act, Retail Investment Strategy, SME financing, a green recovery)
  • 22 years on from the Lamfalussy Report, competitive regulation and ESAs review
  • Central bank digital currencies, digital payments and digital services for retail investors (e.g. regulation, investor protection, financial stability, interoperability)
  • Resilience and resolution of market infrastructures (e.g. trade repositories, central counterparties)
  • The impact of monetary policies on capital markets
  • Bond markets, money market funds, and consolidate tape
  • MiFID II (e.g. transparency, liquidity, research coverage, data)
  • EU-UK capital markets, the cost of fragmentation and the loss of liquidity
  • Sustainable Finance (e.g. sustainability, ESG standards, financial reporting, green sentiment, alternative data)
