The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis (JFQA) publishes theoretical and empirical research in financial economics. Topics include corporate finance, investments, capital and security markets, and quantitative methods of particular relevance to financial researchers.

The JFQA gives prompt attention to all submitted manuscripts. Consistent with this policy, honoraria are paid to referees who provide timely reviews. Manuscripts are considered for publication in the JFQA on the understanding that they have not been previously published, in whole or in part, and are not being simultaneously considered for publication elsewhere.

Submit manuscripts online through JFQA's Editorial Manager site (http://www.editorialmanager.com/jfqa), with a cover letter and $220 submission fee. Also, please provide proof of current individual subscription with your submission (i.e., e-mail confirmation of payment or printout of your Cambridge Journals Online profile at http://journals.cambridge.org/jfqa). Please note: corporate or university library subscriptions do not count as individual subscriptions.

You may subscribe at http://journals.cambridge.org/jfqa. 2009 Individual Subscription Rates: Online & Print (£40/$80); Online only (£30/$60); and Print only (£35/$70).

Please contact the JFQA office before resubmitting a manuscript that was processed prior to December 3, 2008. 

Submission Requirements: Please prepare three files:

1. Cover letter. Please address the cover letter to the Managing Editor.
2. The title page. In this first file, the title page must show title, author name(s) and affiliation(s), e-mail address(es), and work phone number(s). All author identification information, including acknowledgements, should be contained in the cover page file only.
   
3. The paper itself with title, abstract, and body. In this second file, which will be sent blind to the reviewer(s), the first page of text should begin with the title, followed by a one-paragraph abstract of no more than 100 words. Please remove author identifying information from the file itself and not just the text. In Adobe Acrobat please click Ctrl-D or select File>Document Properties, erase any such identification as might appear in any of the tabs, and save the file promptly.

Manuscripts must be double-spaced and single-sided on 8.5′′ × 11′′ paper. Please set 1′′ margins and use 12 point font for all text in the body, figure and table descriptions, and the appendices.
