Scientific Advisory Board
The AMF set up a Scientific Advisory Board composed of prominent figures from the academic and financial worlds to expand its research and strategic intelligence capabilities. The board presents its work at an annual conference attended by members of the academic and market communities.
The Scientific Advisory Board has a three-fold remit
The members of the Scientific Advisory Board hold positions in leading universities, business schools and public and private research centres. It has a triple remit:

- promote research useful to the exercise of the missions of the markets’ authority.
