The article introduces a general-purpose citation-indexing system for finance journals, with the primary objective of illustrating the cross-disciplinary impact of journals of finance. A brief historical overview of the growth of professional literature is presented, and it is suggested that writers of financial literature often use only a few sources in their research. The citation-indexing system introduced by the authors can assist researchers in bibliographic searches, identification of widely used finance journals, and the selection of appropriate journals for their needs.
