Financial Services Review: Journal Updates and Opportunities

The Academy of Financial Services is pleased to share several important updates regarding its official journal, Financial Services Review (FSR).

First, we are delighted to announce the successful completion of the loading of all FSR back issues. This represents a significant milestone in enhancing the accessibility and visibility of the journal’s full body of scholarship. We extend our sincere appreciation to Shawn Brayman for his substantial support and contributions in bringing this project to completion.

Second, FSR is transitioning to a continuous publication model. Under this approach, accepted articles will be published online as soon as they are ready, rather than waiting for compilation into scheduled issues. This shift is intended to accelerate the dissemination of research and provide more timely access to new insights in financial services.

Third, FSR is now inviting Expressions of Interest for the role of Deputy Editor. The Deputy Editor will work closely with the Editor to support manuscript handling and peer review, contribute to editorial strategy and journal development, and assist with production and reviewer engagement activities. This position is designed as a developmental pathway, with the expectation of progression to the Editor role, subject to Board approval. Interested candidates are encouraged to email (Fsr@academyfinancial.org) a brief statement of interest along with a two-page CV by April 30.

We thank our authors, reviewers, editorial board members, associate editors, and readers for their continued support and commitment to advancing high-quality research in financial services.
