The Journal of Financial Research is a quarterly academic journal devoted to publication of original scholarly research in (1) investment and portfolio management, (2) capital markets and institutions, and (3) corporate finance, corporate governance, and capital investment. The JFR as it is popularly known has been in continuous publication since 1978 and is sponsored by the Southern Finance Association (SFA) and the Southwestern Finance Association (SWFA).  The Journal is published and distributed by Wiley InterScience, and is available in print and electronic format.

Manuscripts submitted for publication are double-blind-refereed to insure fairness to the extent possible. Currently there are 38 Associate Editors, all of whom are leading scholars, who review a significant number of the manuscripts. The Editorship of the JFR rotates periodically, usually every three to six years. Editorial policy guidance is actively provided by a three-member Policy Board consisting of Presidents and one Past-President of the SFA and SWFA.

Subscribers include most college and university libraries in the United States as well as several abroad, various financial institutions throughout the world, and individual members of SFA and SWFA.
