North American Conference on Islamic Finance
​ Islamic Finance: A Value-Based Approach to Sustainable Growth In an era of increasing financial turbulence, ethical considerations in finance have become more critical than ever. The instability in global financial markets stems largely from flawed corporate practices, regulatory loopholes, and an erosion of ethical values in business operations. The consequences of corporate misconduct, financial scandals, and unsustainable financial practices highlight the urgent need for a fundamental shift toward ethical and responsible finance. Islamic finance offers a value-based alternative by emphasizing transparency, ethical business conduct, sustainability, and social responsibility. The North American Conference on Islamic Finance (NACIF) serves as a platform to explore these principles and their practical applications, fostering a financial ecosystem that is equitable, stable, and aligned with societal well-being.
The purpose of the North American Conference on Islamic Finance (NACIF) is to foster the sharing of global knowledge. It is an international forum for Islamic finance scholars and practitioners to discuss and collaborate on the various innovative practices that are being used in the Islamic finance industry. Ultimately, the goal of NACIF is to facilitate sustainable finance practices that benefit society at all levels.
Center for Business and Productivity Dynamics – CompNet, the Halle Institute for Economic Research, and the European Commission (DG Economic and Financial Affairs) are pleased to announce the 15th Annual IWH-CompNet Conference, to be held at the European Commission in Brussels on October 22–23, 2026. The conference will focus on productivity enhancement in Europe and the role of industrial policy, competition, and market structure in shaping long-term growth and economic resilience. Productivity growth in Europe remains subdued, yet it is essential for sustaining living standards, supporting the green and digital transitions, and strengthening resilience in an increasingly fragmented global economy. The challenge of boosting productivity growth features prominently in high-level policy reflections, including the Letta Report on the future of the Single Market and the Draghi Report on European competitiveness, as well as in the European Commission’s policy agenda. A central theme of the conference is how Europe can reconcile potentially competing policy goals. Industrial policies aimed at fostering scale, innovation, and strategic autonomy may support productivity growth, but they can also raise concerns regarding market concentration, reduced competitive pressure, and consumer welfare. Conversely, competition policies that prioritise consumer choice may limit the emergence of firms with sufficient scale to innovate and compete globally. The conference will provide a forum for policy-relevant academic research that offers micro-based evidence to assess trade-offs, complementarities, and design choices. The conference welcomes theoretical and empirical contributions, particularly papers using firm-level, micro-aggregated, or harmonised cross-country data, including IWH-CompNet data and national microdata infrastructures. In line with the IWH-CompNet tradition, the aim is to foster a structured dialogue between academic research and policymaking by highlighting evidence-based insights into productivity, reallocation, innovation, and firm dynamics. The programme will combine academic paper sessions with policy discussions involving researchers and policymakers from European institutions and national authorities. Topics of Interest (not limited to) Productivity growth, dispersion, and convergence across firms, sectors, and countries Industrial policy and productivity: design, effectiveness, and distributional effects Market structure, firm concentration, markups, intangibles, and competition dynamics Innovation, scale, and the role of large firms versus SMEs Productivity diffusion, technology adoption, and barriers to firm growth Reallocation dynamics, entry and exit, and resource misallocation Strategic autonomy, dependencies, geopolitical fragmentation, defence spending, and productivity in open economies Global value chains, reshoring, and firm performance Green and digital transitions, including AI, and their implications for productivity Intangible capital, knowledge spillovers, and human capital accumulation Organisers: Center for Business and Productivity Dynamics – CompNet, Halle Institute for Economic Research, European Commission (DG ECFIN) Location: European Commission, Brussels Call for papers deadline: May 30, 2026 Decisions notified by: July 3, 2026 Keynote Speaker: Kalina Manova (University College London) Scientific Committee: Filippo di Mauro (IWH-CompNet), Javier Miranda (IWH-CompNet), Eric Bartelsman (Vrije Universiteit), Alessandro Turrini (DG ECFIN), Luis Garcia Lombardero (DG ECFIN), Rolf Strauch (ESM, CEPR, RPN) Kindly submit your paper via this form.

The 15th Annual IWH-CompNet Conference will take place on October 22-23, 2026 in Brussels, Belgium, focusing on how Europe can reconcile potentially competing policy goals.

Possible areas of interest include, but are not limited to: · Interactions between inflation, monetary policy, and fiscal policy · Sovereign debt, fiscal sustainability, and the credibility of policy frameworks · Inflation dynamics in the presence of production networks and firm heterogeneity · Distributional effects of monetary and fiscal policy over the business cycle · Implications of bounded rationality for monetary and fiscal policy · Inflation and monetary policy in tight and slack labor markets · The effects of demographic change and technological progress on labor markets and inflation · Global supply shocks, geopolitical fragmentation, and their implications for inflation and policy coordination Keynote speakers: Martin Eichenbaum (Northwestern University) Clare Lombardelli (Bank of England) Morten Ravn (University College London) Important dates: Submission deadline: 15 April 2026 (6 p.m. GMT) Notification of acceptance: 15 May 2026 Registration opens: 15 May 2026 Registration deadline: 1 June 2026 Funding: Accommodation expenses will be covered only for participants included in the conference programme.

3rd biennial “Africa in the Global Economy“ conference
Africa’s role in the global economy is being reshaped by regional ambitions and external pressures. While the AfCFTA has generated momentum, intra-African trade remains fragile, exposing gaps in in-frastructure and readiness. Meanwhile, external powers continue to influence Africa’s trajectory. The expiry of AGOA preferences and the introduction of reciprocal tariffs under recent U.S. policy have lim-ited trade options and affected industrial production. China’s duty-free access offer and infrastructure investments gain appeal, while the EU conditions preferential access on sustainability and political re-quirements. These dynamics intersect with intensified global competition for Africa’s critical raw material, raising questions about their potential economic and political impacts. Topics of interest include international trade, finance, and development, but contributions exploring other areas with clear links to Africa’s regional or global economic integration are also welcome. Early-career researchers and contributors from the Global South are strongly encouraged to submit. The conference will take place in person, beginning on Wednesday, 2 December in the afternoon and ending in the early afternoon of Friday, 4 December. Submission Authors should submit extended abstracts (up to 500 words) outlining the contribution to the literature, methodology, and main results. Submissions are accepted exclusively via the conference submission form: https://www.teilnehmermanagement.idos-research.de/africa-in-the-global-economy-/ For questions, contact socioeconomic@idos-research.de with “AfrEcon 2026” in the subject line.
