The Emerging Markets Corporate Governance Research Network, supported by the Corporate Governance Solutions Group and HHL call for papers to be presented at the
5th International Conference on Corporate Governance in Emerging Markets to be held on September 25
- 26, 2015 in Leipzig, Germany. The conference series bring together researchers from around the world investigating the impact
of corporate governance on firm performance and economic development, and the role of legal, economic and political institutions in shaping corporate governance systems in emerging markets. The conference series aims to facilitate dissemination of state of
the art research on corporate governance in emerging markets with the objective of supporting policy and practice development, all to improve corporate governance research. To this end the conference will provide a forum to discuss and solicit research from
both theoretical and policy perspectives. The conference will also provide an opportunity to inquire how academic research findings relate to practice in emerging markets, among others by having leading practitioners as discussants.
The conference series is an undertaking of EMCGN (Emerging Markets Corporate Governance Research Network) chaired by Prof. Stijn Claessens of University of Amsterdam and IMF:

Institute at Korea University in 2011, and the Indian School of Business in 2013 – papers on all aspects of corporate governance are welcome. Papers are expected to be from law, economics and finance fields, but the conference also welcomes papers from a variety
of other disciplines such as sociology, organizational science, and management. Both theoretical and empirical papers, as well as clinical studies, are welcome. The conference welcomes papers focusing on comparative research comprising clusters of countries
sharing similar institutional or macroeconomic characteristics. Clusters may comprise of countries that are geographically close as in regions, or distant such as the BRIC countries or countries with similar institutional frameworks or corporate governance
