Interactive Finance Conference Ranking

Rank the major finance conferences by the share of presented papers later published in a journal set you choose — in the same spirit as Hou, Smajlbegović & Urban (2025, Journal of Empirical Finance 84, 101652). A presented paper is counted as published when it can be linked to a journal article — by matching paper titles and author names, and corroborating with the acknowledgement footnotes in which authors thank the conferences where the work was presented (see How it works for the full method). All computation runs in your browser.

# Conference Rate Published / Presented

Publication rate over time

Robustness across matching methods

Is the ranking an artefact of how papers are matched to publications? Adding the matching procedures one at a time — from identical-title matches only, through strong title/author matches, acknowledgement-verified matches, to all matches (the procedures are described under How it works) — leaves the order largely unchanged: roughly parallel, non-crossing lines mean the ranking is stable regardless of which matching methods are used.

Which conferences are thanked, by journal set

Share of published articles in each journal set whose acknowledgement footnote names the conference (an article may thank several). Shading compares within a column.

Descriptive statistics

Number of papers by conference and year. All figures are aggregates (no per-paper data).

Papers per conference per year (blank = no program found for that year; darker = larger; italic* = small sample, fewer than 10 papers, so that year's rate is unreliable).
