The Department of Finance and the Luther King Center for Financial Studies is pleased to invite submissions for the 3rd TCU Finance conference. Four of the six papers at our last conference were subsequently published in top 3 finance outlets. We hope to continue building on this success by soliciting contributions on any finance topic, but in keeping with the focus of the King Center, papers on investment management and alternative assets are particularly welcome.
