**2025 Fintech and Financial Institutions Research Conference**

Co-Sponsored by the University of Delaware and The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia
Dates: April 10 and 11, 2025,
with an evening poster session and reception on April 9
Location: Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA
10 N Independence Mall W, Philadelphia, PA 19106

The Fintech and Financial Institutions Conference is a forum for presenting and discussing current research on the inter-linkages of the fintech sector and the broader financial system. The Conference will focus on understanding economic consequences and impacts in both directions, as well as regulatory implications of the fintech sector. The Conference will also focus on technology and engineering developments that are key to the way fintech works within the financial system. The Conference aims to include high-quality academic papers from multiple fields, including finance, economics, computer engineering, management information systems, and others. The Conference aims to foster the dialogue between the Fin and Tech sides of fintech.

On the Fin Track, the conference sessions will focus on finance and economics issues that relate the technological advances of Fintech to its economic, financial, societal, and regulatory environment. These sessions will follow the standard finance conference format, will include discussants and will not be included in any published proceedings. On the Tech Track, the conference sessions will focus on engineering and technical issues that are driving the evolution of financial institutions and alternative financial service providers. These sessions will follow the standard engineering conference format, will be hosted by session chairs but will not include discussants, and will include formal proceedings published by Springer Nature.

We aim for a conference that unites the research conversation across the Fin and Tech Tracks, with authors, discussants, and session chairs contributing to an interdisciplinary conversation. In particular, the event will intermingle sessions for two “tracks” of the conference, with approximately equal agenda time for each. We plan to host two keynote speakers, to give full emphasis to the intersecting issues relevant to both tracks.


If you’re submitting from the Fin side, the corresponding session format will be very familiar to you, and the Tech sessions will provide additional insights behind the methods and the thinking on the engineering side, a key source of the methods applied in the field and in research. If you’re submitting from the Tech side, you will also find the corresponding session format familiar to you, and the Fin sessions will provide additional insights into the economic causes and effects of industry uses of technologies.

We are delighted to announce our keynote speakers for the Conference. Stefan Nagel, the Fama Family Distinguished Service Professor of Finance at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, will be a keynote speaker for the Conference. Ramayya Krishnan, Dean of the Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy and William W. and Ruth F. Cooper Professor of Management Science and Information Systems at Carnegie Mellon University will also be a keynote speaker for the Conference. In consideration of the addition of these speakers to our agenda, we are extending the paper submission deadline to January 14.
