Abstract
We examine networking effects on financial research based on a rich database of citations for all articles and editorial board membership information from a set of 23 finance journals during 1990-2010. Our findings show that a common characteristic amongst the premier journals (JF, JFE, and RFS) is that both editorial board membership network and coauthor network are significantly higher than other finance journals. In addition, regression results show that non-premier journals do not exhibit any significant network relationship on article’s future citations, which indicate that editors in non-premier journals are less likely to practice favoritism to connected authors on the same editorial board or having coauthor relationship with the editor of the published journal.
