摘要

The 30th annual conference on Financial Economics and Accounting (CFEA) was held at New York University on November 1-2, 2019. There were close to 350 papers submitted for the conference. 45 papers were accepted for presentation at the conference (18 each in Accounting and Finance and 9 papers to be presented in joint finance/accounting sessions) after a rigorous review process that resulted in an 12.9% acceptance rate. The result was both exciting and outstanding. CFEA has become one of the most prestigious academic conferences in finance and accounting nationally and internationally. See the attached program for the details of the two-day event. CFEA is an annual conference hosted by members of a consortium of eight universities: Georgia State University, Indiana University, New York University, Rutgers University, Temple University, University of Maryland, University of Toronto, and Tulane University. It is a highly selective and refereed conference of research papers in financial economics and accounting. CFEA brings together financial economists and accounting scholars to share their research relevant to the theory and practice of business.
