感谢外经贸买了那么多数据库...感谢Jstor....

------ 2/17 原答案-----

看到上面那么多答案居然没提BS公式的那篇Paper,忍不住试着来答一下。。

我猜题主是想通过读作为学科foundation的这些paper来进行金融入门,曾几何时我也有和楼主相似的想法,并自己做了一点Researching ,也整理出了一点成果,我就试着根据这些Paper为知友们理一理现代金融发展的脉络吧。

(提醒:为了给新手一个金融学发展的直观的感受,我选择了用时间顺序列举Paper的办法,而不是按传统的分 投资学/公司金融 两块(PT-CAPM-EMH-MM-BSM)[3]来列举的。)

首先,金融的一切一切的Foundation,

Daniel Bernoulli

(瑞士人)在1738年写的:

Specimen Theoriae Novae de Mensura Sortis," Commentarii Academiae Scientiarum Imperialis Petropolitanae, Tomus V 1738, pp. 175-192.

这篇论文提出了用期望效用衡量风险的新方法,从某种角度上定义了Risk这个现代金融学研究的最本质的东西。

原文是拉丁文,英译(1954版):

Exposition of a New Theory on the Measurement of Risk,Daniel Bernoulli,Econometrica, Vol. 22, No. 1. (Jan., 1954), pp. 23-36.

Citation:1827

1. The birth of finance--Portfolio Theory.

正如Eugene F. Fama [2]所说:

Finance has its birth in 1952 with the PhD thesis of Harry Markowitz on portfolio theory that he did in the Department of Economics.

所以这篇Paper肯定是逃不开的:

Markowitz, Harry. "Portfolio selection*." The journal of finance 7.1 (1952): 77-91.

Citation:17176

虽然题主把范围限制在了Paper,不过如果感兴趣的话书也可以看看:

Markowitz, Harry M. Portfolio selection: efficient diversification of investments. Vol. 16. Yale University Press, 1970.

Citation:8021

Markowitz把收益和风险这两个在过去原本有点含糊的概念明确为具体的数学概念,相当于指明了金融中的一大块,投资学的研究方向:最大收益,最小方差。奠基石的作用啊。

2.Foundation of Corporate finance--MM theorem.


一句话概括该定理就是:在理想的市场条件下,公司的价值与财务政策无关。


他们的研究算是真正的给Corporate Finance这门学科奠定了基础。




Modigliani, Franco, and Merton H. Miller. "The cost of capital, corporation finance and the theory of investment." The American economic review (1958): 261-297.


Citation:12750



------



3.The bridge between risk and return--Capital Assets Pricing Model


CAPM模型从均衡的角度阐述了风险和收益之间的关系,这个模型提供的insight几乎是照亮了以后金融研究的道路,后来的APT,EMH都是建立在此之上。


Sharpe, William F. "Capital asset prices: A theory of market equilibrium under conditions of risk*." The journal of finance 19.3 (1964): 425-442.


Citation:12900



Lintner, J., 1965, The valuation of risk assets and the selection of risky investments in stock portfolios and capital budgets, Review of Economics and Statistics, 47:13‐37.



Citation:7660


Mossin, J., 1966, Equilibrium in a capital asset market, Econometrica, 34: 768‐783.


Citation:3781



------



4.How does our market behave? --Efficient Market Theory


我们学习金融理论很多时候都会看到这样的假设:


假设市场有效.....我们得出....


那么市场真的有效吗?



Fama, E. F., 1965, Random walks in stock market prices, Financial Analysts Journal, September/October.



Citation:819


Fama, E. F., 1970, Efficient Capital Markets: A review of theory and empirical work, Journal of Finance, 25: 383‐417.



Citation:12240

5.The Greatest Financial Theory Ever--Black-Scholes-Merton Model


这个Greatest当然是我这个无名小辈封的,不过Fama也这么说哦[2]


The Black-Scholes paper is, in my view, the most important paper in economics of the 20th century. No other paper has to be learned by every single economist getting a PhD and has also created an industry—the derivatives industry.

别的theory都是奠定了什么什么基础,BSM Model直接创造了迄今为止可能最赚钱(也最亏钱,衍生品往往是零和博弈)的行业--金融衍生品行业


Merton, Robert C. "Theory of rational option pricing." (1971): 141-183.


Citation:4115


Merton, Robert C. "Option pricing when underlying stock returns are discontinuous." Journal of financial economics 3.1 (1976): 125-144.


Citation:8963



Black, F., and M. Scholes, 1973, The pricing of options and corporate liabilities, Journal of Political Economy, 81: 637‐654


Citation:24015



------



6.From theory to Practical--APT


APT因素模型选股,一个学长在CICC就正在做这个。。简单的说该模型就是把一个Return拆成了不同的factor,类似于计量里的多元线性回归。



Ross, S. A., 1976, The arbitrage theory of capital asset pricing, Journal of Economic Theory, 13: 341‐ 360.



Citation:5192


Ross, S. A., 1978, A simple approach to the valuation of risky streams, Journal of Business, 51: 453‐475.



Citation:520



至此,现代金融学的大厦基本构建完毕。

以上提到的这些人中,大部分都拿过炸药奖,其中:

FRANCO MODIGLIANI -1985

HARRY M. MARKOWITZ -1990

MERTON M. MILLER-1990

WILLIAM F. SHARPE-1990

ROBERT C. MERTON - 1997

MYRON SCHOLES -1997

EUGENE FAMA-2013

最后提一句,建议知友们平衡好看Original Paper和Explained Material(Textbook, PPT )之间的关系,Paper作为第一手资料固然好,但是却真的不适合入门,Textbook讲的有条理且浅显易懂,但却不利于我们领略这个理论本来是什么样子的,阻碍了我们进一步理解这些理论。

所以建议知友们可以先看经典的课本入门,然后课本对照Paper学习。


PS:这有1978年后,影响力比较大的finance相关的论文:

The history of finance

翻了一下答案,看到了corporate finance的reading list,好赞。所以我只限于asset pricing,而且主要是empirical方面的文章,一些classical的theory文章就不提了。另外,我按照topic而不是不按照citation选择,因为一些高引用率的比较老,或者说太经典了,已经被简化为教科书了。

首先是方法的文章,学好方法,用起来放心。然后是factor方面的文章。然后是market efficiency,好多asset pricing的reading list都会涉及,但是也有很多不会讨论,其实没啥问题,感觉只是一个对市场的理解。value and momentum,liquidity,asymmetry和主要的anomaly都是比较重要的,一般的业界量化也会用。最后就是fund方面的文章,我觉得和其他的factor,anomaly文章有一些区别。此外还列了一些教科书。

【写完我发现整段垮掉了...】


NOTE:anomaly方面文章来源自之前课上的reading list(asset pricing. empirical asset pricing, empirical finance),fund方面来源自正在上的课的syllabus(theory of asset pricing。因为老师是做hedge fund的,所以要读一些重要的fund文章。)。另外还有一些是之前自己看过的,觉得不错所以一直记得。

NOTE:这里大部分都是看过的,认为不错列在这里。还有很多看过就忘了,以后再加吧。另外,很多文章都应该有一句话评价,然而要上课去了,我懒得写了,哈哈哈!

一些还不错的asset pricing教科书

NOTE:题主要求的只是论文,但是我还是加入了一些教科书。因为不懂理论就直接撸论文总觉得有点不实在。之前一直光看paper,最近看看理论发现还是很有帮助的。但是觉得看theory之前至少得知道一些高微的知识,尤其是uncertainty方面。要是想看Duffie,还得知道dynamic programming...OMG

【正在看的一本书,我拿它入门,觉得还不错。学过高级微观经济学会更快的上手,因为uncertainty和utility property会熟悉一点。从single period model开篇,基本的no-arbitrage,LOP都还算明白,再迅速跳到dynamic model,感觉还算是跟得上。】
