[AISWorld] Call for Papers: Blockchain and FinTech @ PACIS 2022

[Horst Treiblmaier]

Dear Colleagues

We cordially invite you to consider our PACIS track to submit your work
on Blockchain and Fintech.

Track 2: Blockchain and Fintech

PACIS-25 | July 5 – 9, 2022 | Taipei/Sydney |
https://pacis2022.aisconferences.org/submissions/track-descriptions/

Paper Submission Deadline: March 1, 2022, 23:59 GMT+8 (Taipei Standard Time)

Over the past decade, we witnessed a significant ascent of the fintech
market. Reports estimate that global venture capital investments
skyrocketed from USD $1.8 to $30.8 billion between 2011 and 2018 (Galvin
et al., 2018). Simultaneously, blockchain has emerged as a major
contentious technology with arguably substantial socio-economic
transformational power (Pedersen et al., 2019). Despite its widespread
applicability (e.g., supply chain, auditory purposes), the impact of
blockchain has been most pervasive in the financial market (Simos & Tan,
2020).

This track invites articles that provide relevant insights for
managerial, strategical or regulatory decision making in fintech and/or
blockchain technologies. We are particularly interested in but not
limited to the intersection of fintech and blockchain technologies. The
track is open to all methodological approaches. We invite both full
research and research-in-progress papers.

Potential topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

*Advancing fintech technologies: robo-advisory, social trading, social
credit scoring, algorithmic trading, mobile payment technologies and
business impacts

*Issues and opportunities of a token economy: regulatory frameworks, new
regulatory challenges with FinTech, (de)centralization, commoditization
of mining hardware, governance mechanisms, tokenized invoices

*Macroeconomic implications of fintech: disintermediation of established
players, the impact of cryptocurrencies, structural changes in the economy

*Leveraging new types of data in the financial market: ethical concerns,
data-driven business models, fraud detection, practical feasibility,
smart trading strategies such as artificial intelligence-driven trading
practices

*Characteristics and implications of P2P lending: ICO, IEO, STO,
crowdfunding

*Integration of fintech into established markets: Matthew effect,
cryptocurrencies as safe havens, blockchain-based settlements
