Tidy Finance is a transparent, open-source approach to research in financial economics, featuring multiple programming languages. The {tidyfinance} package is a new addition to the R toolbox and includes helper functions for empirical research in financial economics, addressing a variety of topics covered in Scheuch, Voigt, and Weiss (2023). The package is designed to provide shortcuts for issues extensively discussed in the book, facilitating easier application of its concepts. In this presentation, we focus on the family of functions that download and process financial data.

We also demonstrate the inner workings of the {tidyfinance} package and provide inspiration for applications in teaching and research.
