The Yale FTG meeting will be held virtually on Friday, October 29th, and Saturtay, October 30th 2021. The meeting will be organized by Eduardo Davila and Gary Gorton. Given the online format of the meeting, paper presentations will be split between Friday and Saturday. There will be an optional mini lecture on Friday.

While the conference will be held virtually, we are organizing a few decentralized get-togethers. For the Chicago event, Zhiguo He has organized a classroom where attendants can watch the (virtual) paper presentations together. Please get in touch the the local hosts listed below if you are interested.
