Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The Financial Technology and Innovation Collection welcomes the submission of high-quality papers examining the impact of the development of information and communication technology (ICT) on the financial aspects of our society. Studies focusing on the contributions to the analysis of machine learning, high-frequency trading, distributed ledger technology, blockchain, cryptocurrency, peer to peer, and so on are especially encouraged. The Financial Technology and Innovation Section is open to publishing new and challenging studies focusing on a single country or a group of countries. Theoretical and empirical papers, as well as policy-oriented research papers, will be considered.

Prof. Dr. Shigeyuki Hamori
