Abstract
From April 24–26, 2013, the 2nd European Retail Investment Conference (ERIC) was hosted at Boerse Stuttgart . The conference was designed to highlight the importance and breadth of topics on the behavior of retail investors and financial products distributed to them . Since the financial crisis has left many retail investors with little understanding of financial markets and its institutions, a detailed analysis of the market environment for retail investors is today more topical than ever . To meet this objective, the conference chairs Prof . Dr . Hans-Peter Burghof (University of Hohenheim), Prof . Dr . Ryan Riordan (University of Ontario Institute of Technology) and Prof . Dr . Christof Weinhardt (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) invited academics and practitioners to discuss empirical and theoretical research that analyzes retail investor products and services, the impact of technology on retail investor behavior, investors’ decision making process, investor protection schemes, and market microstructure . In addition to the main conference, the conference included a doctoral consortium, specifically designed for PhD students to present their work and discuss it with experienced researchers .
