Bibliography of Finance

With more than 12,000 entries representing approximately 120 periodicals, this bibliography aims to provide a comprehensive guide to the entire field of finance. While accounting, law and monetary economics are covered to some extent, the core of the bibliography is articles written by financial economists and published in finance journals. Also included are works that are often referred to by finance authors such as Keynes' "General Theory" and articles on information asymmetry, signalling equilibria, statistics and econometrics.

Works in the bibliography, which aim to focus on issues of lasting importance, are analytical as well as descriptive and essentially all of the articles in such major finance journals as the "Journal of Finance" and "Journal of Financial Economics" have been included. Entries are divided into 40 main subject areas broken down into 373 subject categories. They range from Bernoulli's famous paper of 1730 to works published at the end of 1989 with the majority of publications published in the last decade.
