For U.S. authors the copyright is transferred to the extent transferable. Manuscripts must be accompanied by the Copyright Transfer Statement . Electronic submissions of manuscripts speed up the editorial process. Papers published in Finance and Stochastics should normally not exceed 25 pages after typesetting.
Longer papers require a special decision of the editorial board in order to be published.
If a manuscript exeeds this limit, shortening it before submission will increase its chances of acceptance. The form and content of the manuscript should be carefully checked to exclude the need for corrections at the proof stage. Manuscripts must be typed on one side of the paper only and with wide margins. References, tables and figure legends should be typed on separate sheets. The first manuscript page should provide the title, names of all authors, affiliations, any footnotes to the title, address to which proofs are to be sent, a short running title and the Fax number or e-mail address of the author to be contacted in order to accelerate communication.
