You can view their paper, presentation and discussion under the section Best Paper Awards as well as a list of previous conference winners.
The Utah Winter Finance Conference and the Review of Asset Pricing Studies and the Review of Corporate Finance Studies announce a combined submission process. At your choice, your paper submitted to the UWFC also will be considered for publication by the RAPS or the RCFS without additional submission fee.
This is a "no-fault" submission option, which means that if one of the SFS journals decides to review your paper and rejects it, you may submit to any SFS journal at a later date as if the paper was never submitted. Please see our website for the rules for submitting your paper to the RAPS or RCFS.
The Utah Winter Finance Conference acknowledges the generous financial support of the Sam and Diane Stewart Foundation that makes this conference possible.
Also we would like to thank all of our reviewers who spend so many hours reviewing and providing feedback on the papers that are submitted each year. Without their efforts, this conference would not be possible. Here is the list of our most recent reviewers:
