| Description |
This study examines research publications for 514 faculty members in 48 finance departments in Taiwan’s universities during 2003-2008. We follow Shen, Yu, and Chang (2002) and Chen, Lu, Chang, and Lin (2005) to select and categorize finance research journals. This study then calculates and ranks department performance according to the author’s current affiliations and publication’s affiliation. We rank and report the top 20 departments according to the total number of articles and articles per faculty. Our results suggest that the overall finance research performance during 2003-2008 improves substantially than the periods before 2001. We also find that publications in international journals are mainly contributed by the top 10 finance departments. In addition, we report the faculty publication capacity per year at the 1st, 5th, and 10th to 50th percentile to provide a benchmark of research performance in Taiwan. At the 5th percentile, a faculty member ranked the 25th in our 514 faculty sample, can only produce 0.056 (0.167) article per year in A (A-) and above journals. This result shows the difficulty of publishing top-tier journal articles in the area of finance.Key words: research performance, journal publication, finance
