The Journal of Risk Finance invites high-quality submissions for its Special Issue on Financial Inclusion Strategies, Technology, and Risk Management: Emerging Trends and Global Perspectives.
About the Special Issue
Rapid advances in financial digitalisation, artificial intelligence, big data, blockchain, and sustainable finance are fundamentally reshaping the global financial ecosystem. While these innovations offer new opportunities for financial inclusion, resilience, and sustainable development, they also introduce emerging risks related to cybersecurity, governance, financial stability, and regulatory oversight.
This Special Issue seeks theoretical and empirical research that explores how technology-driven financial systems can strengthen financial inclusion and risk management while addressing challenges associated with climate risk, ESG data, fintech, decentralized finance, and macroprudential policy. Contributions with practical implications for policymakers, regulators, and financial institutions are particularly encouraged.
