Abstract

Wayne Ferson Executive Editor, the Review of Asset Pricing Studies The Review of Asset Pricing Studies (the RAPS) is ending its third year as a publishing journal, and now is a good time to talk about how we are doing and to review the state of our new journal. We are doing well. You, our authors, are submitting high quality papers, and you, our referees, are writing high quality reviews. Some of the world’s leading scholars serve on our edi- torial board.

The Society of Financial Studies (SFS), which owns three journals including the RAPS, has been very supportive as well. None of this surprises me. When I agreed to be the first Editor of the new journal I knew that I would be working with top quality people and organ- izations. But, there have been some surprises.
