ERMAS, held in Iași from 30 July to 1 August 2025, where I was invited to present my working paper entitled “The Effects of Annual Reports on Volatility: A European Perspective.” In my presentation, I demonstrated how textual analysis can be applied to enhance classical econometric models, particularly in the context of financial market time series.
As a first-year PhD student, this experience was especially valuable, as it allowed me to receive constructive feedback from Romanian professors with strong international profiles. Moreover, the conference provided an excellent opportunity to engage in academic networking with other PhD students at more advanced stages of their studies.
