Call for Papers

The 16th Annual Conference of the Asia-Pacific Association of Derivatives

July 14, 2020, Online

The Asia-Pacific Association of Derivatives (APAD) will hold its 16th Annual Conference online (virtual conference) on July 14th, 2020. After a series of discussions and consultations, the program committee of APAD 2020 have decided to hold the conference as a virtual conference in response to the continuing threat from developments of the coronavirus (COVID-19) throughout the world. Our decision by the Korea Derivatives Association and Program Committee for APAD 2020 was made for the health and safety of our participants, members, staffs, sponsors and their significant others.

The online APAD 2020 is rescheduled to hold the opening program as well as all presentation sessions as virtual sessions on the 14th of July, 2020. Even though we will provide more information in detail when it becomes available, presentations and discussions should be pre-recorded for promoting effective delivery of materials to audiences and open to all participants of the conference. However, we encourage presenters and discussants to join real-time online questions and answers sessions at the conference date. To consider differences in the time zones and facilitate participants’ attendances, we accommodate three-time zone sessions: America, Asia and Europe which will be announced when the conference program is completed.

As a small token to appreciate the efforts of pre-recording presentations and discussions, we plan to provide honoraria for presenters and discussants. Awards for one best paper and one honorable mention should be announced during a virtual ceremony. As already announced, a special issue of the Journal of Futures Markets and the Journal of Derivatives and Quantitative Studies (JDQS) will publish selected peer reviewed papers from the APAD 2020. Papers on any fields of study in finance are welcome including: Derivatives; Volatility; Risk Management; Regulation; Asset Pricing; Investments; Market Microstructure; Behavioral Finance among others.

APAD 2020 will be delivered in an innovative way to the academic community of derivatives and related areas by changing its venue from the conventional in-person event to an online-only format. It should bring the entire participants together with a novel experience. Please join us for keynote speech and paper presentation sessions.
