Dear BLPB Readers:

Call for Papers: Ninth Annual Wharton FinReg Conference – 4/10, submission deadline 2/10.

We are pleased to announce that the annual Wharton Financial Regulation Conference will take place on Friday, April 10, 2026.

Convening as the Trump administration wraps up its first year and as we head into the midterm election season, the conference offers a timely opportunity for scholars and policymakers to asses recent developments in financial regulation and peer over the horizon.

We invite submissions from scholars across all disciplines—law, economics, political science, history, business, and beyond—on any topic related to financial regulation, broadly construed.

There is conference funding to support the reasonable travel expenses of paper authors selected to present. There is also some funding available for additional participants, with priority given to new and emerging scholars.”

The complete call for papers is here: 2026 Wharton Fin Reg Conference – CFP
