The 8th Future of Financial Information Conference took place on June 11–12, 2026, at the Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE in Frankfurt am Main.

From satellite images to natural language processing, the way investors source, process and trade on information is constantly evolving. The conference brought together international researchers to discuss the evolution of financial information, with a particular focus on new data sources, natural language processing, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, as well as their impact on capital markets and market efficiency. Prof. Dr. Christoph Sextroh joined the conference as a discussant of a research study on the trade-off between public and private information for stock price efficiency and informativeness. 

The event provided an excellent opportunity to exchange views on current developments and research findings at the intersection of accounting, finance, and the information economy.
