This article will start with statistical analysis and induction on research bibliographies that were published in economics and management journals originated from CSSCI to arrive at a conclusion that topics such as reliability of fair value measurement, value relevance, the relationship between fair value and earnings management are currently among the most concerned ones in studying fair value. Then take statistics of key words as reference to select bibliographies and elaborate the article from four aspects. Our results suggest that the research on fair-value auditing and the continuous all-around convergence of fair value accounting standards are the new trends.
