Call for Submissions
China Accounting and Finance Review (CAFR)
Established in 1999 by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) in collaboration with Tsinghua University, China Accounting and Finance Review (CAFR) is the first refereed journal of accounting and finance published in the Greater China Region. For over 20 years, CAFR has been aiming at publishing original articles that have implications for accounting and finance issues in China.
To attract more high-quality publications, starting from this year CAFR welcomes submissions of research papers, literature review papers, and knowledge transfer summaries with topics related to contemporary accounting and finance issues for all countries or regions outside of China. CAFR also encourages comparability studies (of special interest are replications of prior China or US studies using data from other countries), or applying fundamental analysis of accounting information for capital markets around the world.
Paper Submission
The editors welcome submissions of high-quality research papers, literature review papers, knowledge transfer summaries in different accounting and finance tracks. Authors should indicate clearly which track their manuscript is being submitted to. Authors can also indicate “General” track in case they cannot find a track suitable for their manuscript, and may suggest a Senior Track Editor to handle their manuscript. Authors are also welcome to suggest reviewers. CAFR conducts double-blinded reviews, meaning that identities of the reviewers and authors are concealed from each other to make sure that the review process is anonymous. After the manuscript is sent out for review, authors will receive the notification e-mail from the CAFR Editorial Office within 6 weeks on average regarding the acceptance decision and referee reports. The journal is published quarterly in March, June, September, and December of each year. Interested authors can submit their manuscript via email to the CAFR Editorial Office at af.cafr@polyu.edu.hk.
