Global Corporate Governance Colloquium
The University of Oxford | 3 – 4 June 2022
Deadline for submissions: 29 October 2021 (at midnight CEST)
The Global Corporate Governance Colloquia (GCGC) is a global initiative to bring together the best research in law, economics, and finance relating to corporate governance at a yearly conference held at 12 leading universities in the Americas, Asia and Europe. The 12 hosting institutions are:
Columbia University, Harvard University, Imperial College London, National University of Singapore, Peking University, Seoul National University, Stanford University, Swedish House of Finance, University of Oxford, University of Tokyo, Yale University and Goethe University Frankfurt (Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE and DFG LawFin Center).
The aim of the conference series is to attract current research papers of the highest scholarly quality in the field of corporate governance. The conferences are primarily ‘academic to academic’ events with some participants from industry and the public sector including the practitioner partners of GCGC and other invited panelists. Japan Exchange Group (JPX) is a Practitioner Partner.
The eighth annual GCGC Conference will be hosted by University of Oxford on 3 – 4 June 2022. The Conference Committee is inviting researchers to submit recent papers, or extended abstracts on corporate governance (no maximum word count). In this context, corporate governance refers to the way in which private and public companies, enterprises, entrepreneurship, and financial institutions are governed and run in relation to their purpose, values, ownership, representation, accountability, financing, investment, performance, leadership, direction, management, employment, law, regulation, and taxation. Papers will be selected for presentation from the submissions received. Ideally, these submissions should be based on new research that will not have been presented before. Each paper will be assigned a discussant and there will be ample time for questions and comments from the audience.
PAPER SELECTION PROCEDURE
A selection will be made by a Conference Committee from papers and abstracts that are submitted online before the deadline of 29 October 2021 (at midnight CEST) through the form contained here. Researchers will be notified whether their paper has been accepted for the conference before 31 December 2021.
ORGANISATION
The conference will take place over two days. In addition to the research presentations, there will be two panel discussions involving participants from industry and the public sector. The conference dinner will be held on the evening of 3 June 2022. The organisers will contribute towards the cost of travel and provide up to three nights of hotel accommodation for the presenters.
