The US financial crisis, which followed from the downturn of the US real estate crisis in 2008, was rapidly transmitted to the whole international financial systems. This financial crisis has triggered a strong economic recession for several developed and emerging countries. The abrupt transmission and the magnitude of this crisis shows that, in spite of the recent introduction of several sophisticated developments in finance and accounting, additional protections of the financial system and economies from external and unexpected crises and crashes are still to be discovered and implemented.
It seems necessarily to develop new tools and innovative methodologies to improve trading, financing decisions, corporate governance, risk management and the valuation of risk premia. Moreover, other approaches to finance also need to be developed; those methods include, without being restricted to, micro-finance, corporate responsibility and ethics in finance through managerial methods leading to a responsible and sustainable development. This international conference aims at allowing academics and professionals together to discuss the main consequences of this crisis, their own experiences, and also to provide an opportunity to exchange and confront innovative and thought-provoking ideas on the issues above. The conference includes plenary sessions and parallel sessions. It also schedules a separate PhD workshop and poster sessions.
