About & call for papers
The Volatility Institute at NYU Shanghai invites academic papers and policy proposals on the impact of artificial intelligence, large language models in particular, on financial systems, together with the operational, governance and market risks that widespread AI deployment creates. Theoretical, empirical and policy-oriented work is welcome on generative AI in asset pricing, sentiment analysis and portfolio optimization, on AI-driven trading algorithms and liquidity under stress, and on emerging operational risks. Keynotes and a policy roundtable complete the program.
