Conference Theme: Strengthening financial resilience through sustainable finance in the midst of crises

The recent economic and financial turbulence caused by the global financial crisis has created an extremely difficult environment, particularly for governments and policy makers, to respond to such turbulence and maintain resilience in their economics and financial systems. International trade and financial flows have almost stopped. In this context, the Annual Conference on Emerging Financial Markets and Policies (EFMP-2023) aims to provide a platform for academics, practitioners and policy makers to collaborate and share the contemporary perspectives on issues relating to the business and economy in general and finance in particular.
