About the Conference

MFA Conference

The Malaysian Finance Association (MFA) is proud to be the pioneer in organizing a national-level conference that specializes in finance. Since its inaugural workshop in 1999, the meeting of finance academicians and practitioners has developed to become an annual symposium and today, owing to the overwhelming response, the meeting is now known as an annual conference. The conference is hosted by local institutions of higher learning in Malaysia, both public and private, on rotational basis.

The MFA conference is a great platform for academicians and practitioners to discuss and exchange ideas pertaining to issues related to finance. It also provides an avenue for researchers to share their findings on financial issues relevant to Malaysia. Selected papers from the conference are published in the Capital Market Review which is an official publication of MFA sponsored by Bursa Malaysia. The 23rd edition of the conference is the first time the MFA has promote the annual meeting to an international scale - the 23rd MFA International Conference, MFAIC2021.
