JFQA >= MS > RF, US
RF vs MS vs JFQA, what is 4th in Finance?
-
to be very honest,
seems that MS=JFQA>=ROF
just looks at MRM finance departments where quite some people publish JFQA and MS, but rarely ROF.
MS is better than ROF for sure in business school, almost inarguable in your dean's eyes.
JFQA also contains some influential and interesting papers, but ROF seems a tr.ash bin for regulatory tar.ds' models.

MS>JFQA for sure. Back in 90's, perhaps JFQA>MS when JFQA used to publish good papers. Now it is no longer the case. I see a lot of random papers in JFQA. It is like JFE, but paper quality is much worse. MS uses two referees as well as AEs, so paper quality is better.
