Quantity versus quality: it is possible to change course in banking and finance research?

The scientific community is widely aware of the distortions produced by a situation that sees an overabundance of articles in the face of the decay of average quality and real impact. Yet, no one seems to have a concrete interest in changing strategy until the others do it simultaneously. Hence the key question: if the system that rewards quantity traps us, why don’t we change course? To this end, it is necessary that everyone, in the various sectors, speaks the same language, uses the same rules, shares and follows the same ethical principles, always and above all for the good of young people.
