The Financial Management Association International (FMA) will host its 2026 European Conference from June 10 to 12 in Braga, Portugal. This event is organized in partnership with the University of Minho, a leading academic institution known for its strong research focus in economics and management.
The conference will be led by Program Co-Chairs Manuel Rocha Armada of the University of Minho and Cláudia Custódio of Imperial College London. Both are highly respected finance scholars with extensive experience in leading major European finance conferences.
Braga, a city rich in historical heritage and modern conference facilities, offers an ideal setting for this global gathering. The three-day event will feature multiple tracks of paper presentations, keynote speeches, and networking sessions, focusing on key areas such as corporate finance, investments, financial markets, banking, and risk management.
The conference expects to attract 300 to 500 participants, including academics, financial practitioners, and regulators from around the world. A call for papers will open early 2025, inviting high-quality submissions across all finance research fields, subject to a rigorous peer-review process.
This conference continues FMA’s mission to promote excellence in finance education and research, providing a valuable platform for collaboration among emerging and established scholars while highlighting the vibrant academic and cultural environment of northern Portugal.
