55th Meeting of the EWGCFM (EWGCFM 2015) is organized by Institute of  
Applied Mathematics (IAM; http://iam.metu.edu.tr/) of Middle East  
Technical University (METU), EURO Working Group “Commodities and  
Financial Modelling” (EWGCFM; http://www.ewgfm.eu/) and The  
Association of European Operational Research Societies (EURO;  
http://www.euro-online.org/). This conference will take place at the  
campus of METU (http://www.metu.edu.tr/) in Ankara, Turkey, on May  
14-16, 2015.

EWGCFM 2015 is an element of the conference series, whose 54th meeting  
is going to take place in Milano, Italy, in December 2014. The EURO  
Working Group EWGCFM was founded in September 1986 in Lisbon. The  
primary field of interest for the working group can be described as  
"financial models that help to solve problems faced by financial  
managers in the firm". EWGCFM 2015 will contribute to this purpose in  
modelling and problem solving through advances in theory, methods and  
practice, by applications of mathematics and statistics, economics and  
management sciences, engineering and environmental sciences, supported  
by modern Operational Research.

We are pleased to announce the following Invited Speakers of the conference:

•             Vedat Akgiray  (Bogazici University, Turkey),
•             Constantinos Kardaras  (London School of Economics, UK),
