XKDR Forum in collaboration with Vanderbilt law School is inviting papers to be submitted for the 15th Emerging Markets Conference, 2024. In the past, the audience for these events has comprised of academics, participants from the legal and financial industry, policy makers from government and regulators.

The conference aims to cover presentations and discussions across the following set of research topics:

• The sources of economic success or failure in EMs
• Finance in EMs (households, financial markets, financial intermediaries, firms and finance, finance and growth)
• Political economy, law, public administration, regulation in EMs
• The impact of populism upon the possibility of sustained growth
• Insights into large EMs that matter in and of themselves
• Insights from narrow research projects that illuminate EMs in general
• The new phase of globalisation and its consequences for international trade, international finance and the nature of the EM firm
• Features of a society that enable or disable convergence into the “normal” package of high levels of freedom and prosperity.
• The puzzles faced by all kinds of decision makers : individuals, civil society actors, firms, all levels of government.
• Grand challenges such as climate change: implications for EMs and ramifications of choices made in EMs

The ideal papers for EMC shed light on the great questions of the age, while being analytically sound and persuasive.
