Abstract
Business School faculty salaries are strongly correlated with top-ranked-journal publications. However, publishing outside the top-ranked journals is rewarded differently across fields, and the rewards are significantly lower in finance for publication outside of the “Top-3” (JF, JFE, RFS). Revealed preferences from a journal submission survey suggests these incentives guide finance scholars’ journal submission strategies. The lower probability of a top publication in finance raises their marginal value, leading to a higher average compensation structure. Opportunity costs of academic finance (versus finance industry) are also larger than those of other departments.
