The 5th Frontiers of Factor Investing Conference


Group of men on stage

The Frontiers of Factor Investing Conference was back in style and in person at 比比资源 Management School during 15th - 17th April 2026.

We enjoyed an amazing line-up of speakers on every aspect of factor investing, including classic asset pricing, risk management, machine learning or climate finance.

The conference was framed by five excellent keynote talks from Svetlana Bryzgalova (London Business School), ?lvaro Cartea (University of Oxford), Matthias Hanauer (Robeco), Semyon Malamud (EPFL), and Andrew Patton (Duke University). Thank you for sharing your unique insights!
