In honor of Bill Sharpe‘s contributions to finance, the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis is pleased to present the annual William F. Sharpe Award for Scholarship in Financial Research.
The William F. Sharpe Award for Scholarship in Financial Research recognizes researchers who, through their articles published in the JFQA, have most contributed to our understanding of important areas of financial economics. Nominees for the Sharpe Award are chosen by a vote of JFQA readers and Associate Editors. The final selection is made by JFQA Managing Editors.
The Sharpe Award is intended to foster excellence in financial research. It consists of a $5,000.00 prize for the best article published each year in the JFQA.
