What experts say about Tidy Finance

A clean coding environment is a prerequisite for building a relevant investment platform and conducting meaningful factor research. Tidy Finance is the name of the game, giving aspiring academics and finance practitioners just what they need to perform clean and reproducible research. Highly recommended.

Harald Lohre

Executive Director at Robeco

Honorary Researcher at Lancaster University Management School

From our crowd-sourced paper on non-standard errors, I learned how important clean coding is. Tidy Finance is a rich resource for empirical finance researchers, offering clean coding techniques that benefit both beginners and experts.

Albert J. Menkveld

Professor of Finance at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

Fellow at Tinbergen Institute

A fantastic book bringing together financial theory, sound econometrics, thorough data processing and powerful programming techniques using R. An absolute must for every student and scholar in empirical finance.

Tidy Finance is a fantastic resource that lowers the threshold for entry into empirical finance, all in the spirit of open and reproducible science.

Björn Hagströmer

Professor of Finance at Stockholm Business School

To have a deep understanding of empirical asset pricing, one needs to write code using actual data. To learn how to do this, there is no better starting point than Tidy Finance. [...] I strongly recommend Tidy Finance to both beginners and experts.

Raman Uppal

Professor of Finance at EDHEC Business School

Students and professionals alike are led step by step until they suddenly find themselves coding on their own. A brilliant and required resource!
