The AEA’s founding purpose of “the encouragement of economic research” requires intellectual and professional integrity. Integrity demands honesty, care, and transparency in conducting and presenting research; disinterested assessment of ideas; acknowledgement of limits of expertise; and disclosure of real and perceived conflicts of interest. The AEA encourages the “perfect freedom of economic discussion.” This goal requires an environment where all can freely participate and where each idea is considered on its own merits. Economists have a professional obligation to conduct civil and respectful discourse in all forums, including those that allow confidential or anonymous participation.

  • Report of the Editor for His Tenure and 1999*
    THE JOURNAL OF FINANCE • VOL. LV, NO. 4 • AUGUST 2000 AMERICAN FINANCE ASSOCIATION Report of the Editor for His Tenure and 1999* Since this is my last report as editor of the Journal, I report both on my tenure as editor and on the year 1999. The first part of this report discusses my tenure briefly, and the second part reports on 1999. Statistical data are detailed in the tables in Appendix A. Part I. Report on My Tenure In 1987, I was visiting the University of Chicago when I unexpectedly received a phone call from Richard Roll, who, as head of the search commit- tee, asked me whether I would be interested in becoming editor of the Jour- nal of Finance. At that time, I was one of the editors of the Journal of Financial Economics ~JFE!. Dick and his coconspirator Merton Miller suggested that I ask two of my colleagues to become coeditors, Stephen Buser and David Mayers. Editing the Journal of Finance was an exciting opportunity even though at that time the launching of the Review of Financial Studies ~RFS! was increasing the competition for papers and making the task of the editor of the Journal more difficult. For the Journal to function efficiently, sub- stantial financial help would have to be provided by the Ohio State Univer- sity. After securing the funding from the Ohio State University with the help of a University President who was a member of the AFA and getting Stephen Buser and David Mayers to agree to become coeditors, I told Dick that he had found an editor and two coeditors.
