Abstract

Purpose: To analyse characteristics of papers published in The Journal of Financial Management of Property and Construction (JFMPC) for the period 2010-15 (volumes 15.1 to 20.1 inclusive); to consider characteristics and recent trends among said publications; and discuss possible future directions in the subject field. Methodology: Descriptive statistics and qualitative content analysis via word count frequencies. Findings: Eighty papers were published by a combined 216 authors. Lead authors were from a total of 50 academic and five private organisations. Sixty-seven papers were multi-authored, 10 of which were multinational. Eighty-six papers were classified as research papers, 5% were conceptual; 4% general review; 2.5% technical 1.3% case study; and 1.3% viewpoint. There were 46,251 downloads of these papers, which when time-adjusted, represented an average of 64 downloads per paper, per issue of availability on the Web. Most popular keywords were ‘construction’, ‘industry’, ‘project’, and ‘private’. Among all keywords the most popular themes were countries, organisations, miscellaneous, and business. Research implications: Analysis highlights previous trends and possible future research themes. Originality: The findings are unique to JFMPC and therefore novel/new.
