  The Cambridge Endowment for Research in Finance (CERF)
  was founded in 2001 as an independent resource at the Univer-
  sity of Cambridge. It is dedicated to developing an enhanced
  understanding of the evolution and behaviour of ﬁnancial
  markets and institutions, notably in their role as major determi-
  nants of economic behaviour and performance. CERF promotes
  theoretical, quantitative and historical studies, crossing con-
  ventional disciplinary boundaries to bring together research
  groups of economists, mathematicians, lawyers, historians,
  computer scientists and market practitioners. Particular atten-
  tion is paid to the analysis of the impact of ﬁnancial market
  activity on the formulation of public policy. As well as indi-
  vidual research projects, CERF funds Cambridge Finance, the
  organisation that brings together researchers in ﬁnance from
  all departments of Cambridge Universi
