The Institut Louis Bachelier, in cooperation with the Fondation du Risque and the Europlace Institute of Finance is pleased to invite you to the 18th Financial Risks International Forum.

This year’s forum will focus on the theme:

“Shaping Financial Research: Data, AI and New Challenges”

Over the last 50 years, academic research in finance and insurance has been transformed by technological advances, globalization and financial crises. The rise of quantitative finance, driven by advances in computing power, enabled more sophisticated modelling of financial markets and instruments. The 2008 financial crisis spurred research into systemic risk, regulation and financial stability. Recently, the development of new datasets and technologies (such as machine learning, Large Language Models or Decentralized Finance) has brought new tools to forecast, optimize and assess risks.

This upcoming 18th Financial Risks International Forum aims to evaluate the advancements in financial research over the past few decades and to consider its future trajectory, connected to the evolving needs of the industry.

2025 Guest Speakers are:
• Lin William Cong, The Rudd Family Professor of Management & Professor of Finance, Cornell University SC Johnson College of Business (Johnson)
• David Hirshleifer, Professor of Finance, Marshall School of Business, University of Southern California
