Use when explaining how the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis (JFQA) review process works — double-anonymous peer review, the seven-Managing-Editor structure, the $350 fee with $275 refund if not sent to a reviewer, and the under-9-percent acceptance reality. Use to set expectations for what happens after you submit and how decisions are made.

# JFQA Review Process (jfqa-review-process)
Use this skill to understand what happens to a **JFQA** manuscript after submission, so you submit informed and read decision letters correctly.
## Who decides
- JFQA has **no single Editor-in-Chief**. It is led by a team of **seven Managing Editors** (as of 2026): Hendrik Bessembinder, Ran Duchin, Thierry Foucault, Jarrad Harford, Kai Li, George Pennacchi, and Stephan Siegel, supported by advisory editors and 50+ associate editors.
- A Managing Editor is assigned per paper; that editor decides whether to desk-reject or send the paper to reviewer(s). (The specific handling editor is assigned per submission — 待核实 for any individual case.)
## The review model
- **Double-anonymous** peer review (Cambridge Core terminology). Author-identifying information is removed and the manuscript PDF is sent **blind to the reviewer(s)**. Anonymize accordingly (see jfqa-writing-style / jfqa-submission).
