The research bonus is paid for publications in finance. Each author will receive a bonus in the amount of NOK 18,000 for publications at the Norwegian “level 2” and of NOK 8,000 for publications at “level 1”. Levels relate to the national guidelines, see http://dbh.nsd.uib.no/kanaler/hjelp.do

The bonus is payable upon acceptance of the publication. The money will be deposited into the author’s research account (annum). Bonus is not paid for publications that trigger a bonus at the department level, but is unrelated to other publication incentives.

All researchers at the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH) in the area of financial economics who are internal members of Finans|Bergen and participate/contribute accordingly are eligible for the publication bonus. This includes PhD students, post doctors, and assistant professors, but not adjunct professors. In case of joint papers, each Finans|Bergen-author receives full bonus.

Applications may be forwarded to finansbergen@nhh.no at any time and should include a copy of the acceptance letter as well as the accepted paper.

Applications and correspondence are managed by Finans|Bergen’s administrative coordinator. Bonus awards will be made public on Finans|Bergen’s website.
