"Praise for the Journal of Applied Corporate Finance :“Just plain terrific. The selection of contributors is outstanding and the presentations are extraordinarily lucid and stimulating.”—Peter Bernstein, author of Against the Gods: The Remarkable Story of Risk and Capital Ideas: The Improbable Origins of Modern Wall Street “The Journal of Applied Corporate Finance truly bridges the gap between leading thinking and practical solutions. The articles are uniformly well written, with a clear eye to showing practitioners how financial management can be used to increase shareholder value.”—Tom King, The Progressive Corporation “ The Journal of Applied Corporate Finance is far and away the most credible and useful journal aimed at practitioners, at those people who make their livelihood practicing principles of corporate finance.”—Richard Brealey, London Business School, former adviser to the Bank of England" —

"A terrific resource on the latest thinking about global corporate governance." — Steven N. Kaplan, University of Chicago Booth School of Business

"A lively, accessible, and up to date entry into the research by prominent financial economists in global governance. Very topical." — Ailsa Röell, Columbia University
