Call for Papers
The 4thInternational Conference on Financial Technology (ICFT2024)
May 31-June 2, 2024, Nanjing, China
We cordially invite you tothe 4thInternational Conference on Financial Technology (ICFT 2024), which will be held from May 31 to June 2, 2024, at Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology. This conference is jointly sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Management (CAM), the Chinese Society of Optimization, Overall Planning and Economic Mathematics (SCOPE), theSystems Engineering Society of China (SESC), and Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology (NUIST).
The rapid evolution of digital and cloud-based accounting and finance systems is revolutionizing the way we store, manipulate, and access vital economic data and information, making far-reaching changes to transaction processing and management decision making. Cloud computing, facilitated by a worldwide ecosystem of service providers, enables even modest enterprises to optimise their systems with the latest technologies, strategies, and tools. Information is accessible to all via the cloud—from the managers of far-flung branches to salespersons in the field and the CEOs of multi-national corporations. Real-time systems mean that information is always up to date and decisions that were once reliant on historic data, extrapolation, and guesswork are now founded on concurrent intelligence. Invoices raised in one part of the world are transmitted instantaneously to creditors in other parts of the world, and subsequent payments will be just as efficiently processed. Add to this technology the rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), and we are arguably entering an era in which it behoves researchers to delve deeply into the ramifications of this global transformation. Recognizing the impact of this 21stCentury phenomenon, our conference aims to promote innovative research in the areas of AI, big data, blockchain accounting, financial engineering, Fintech, and risk management.
We warmly encourage scholars from research institutes and universities, as well as government departmental managers, to submit papers for presentation at the conference and/or to attend as delegates themselves. Original and outstanding papers will be recommended for publication in SCI and SSCI journals, including theInternational Journal of Finance and EconomicsandJournal of Systems Science and Information.
