The Euro-African Conference in Finance and Economics (CEAFE) aims at offering African and European scholars in finance and economics the opportunity for an open dialogue and an exchange of ideas. It allows them to share their theoretical and empirical knowledge to better understand the economic and financial challenges that both continents face. The CEAFE provides a space for investigation and research of the new issues that have been brought on by the globalization of markets, the development of international trade and financial globalization.

In addition, the CEAFE aims at fostering collaboration between researchers and policy makers between the North and the South of the Mediterranean, consolidating existing cooperation such as the North-South projects, and initiating new productive projects.

The two fields of finance and economics have been linked and separate all at once. They are linked because it is impossible to consider economic problems such as investments, competition, growth and unemployment, to mention but a few, without taking into account the imperatives of profitability and financing. And separate because the financial sphere continues to rapidly disconnect itself from reality while dictating how businesses and states are to function in an economy that is more and more globalized.
