Submissions are now open for the 2026-27 series of the online Law & Finance Workshop. Submissions are due by the end of the day on Friday, July 3, 2026.

The Law & Finance Workshop was launched in Spring 2025 to create a space for more frequent discussion of scholarly works-in-progress in the field of law and finance, and to foster community among scholars working in this area. The workshop meets online once per month during the fall and spring semesters and is open to all interested scholars. Each workshop features a paper presentation followed by comments from a discussant and Q&A with participants. 

We welcome submissions from scholars across all relevant disciplines that examine the role of law and regulation in finance broadly defined, including household finance, corporate finance, and public finance. Interested scholars should submit their abstracts using this form no later than EOD onFriday, July 3, 2026. Selected authors must be ready to make complete drafts of their papers available for distribution one week prior to the scheduled date of the workshop.  

We look forward to seeing you in the fall.

Nikita Aggarwal, Caroline Bradley, & George Georgiev (organizing committee)
