The boson and fermion particle masses are calculated in a finite quantum field theory. The field theory satisfies Poincaré invariance, unitarity and microscopic causality, and all loop graphs are finite to all orders of perturbation theory. The infinite derivative nonlocal field interactions are regularized with a mass (length) scale parameter . The W, Z and Higgs boson masses are calculated from finite one-loop self-energy graphs. The mass is predicted to be GeV, and the higher order radiative corrections to the Higgs boson mass GeV are damped out above the regulating mass scale parameter TeV. The three generations of quark and lepton masses are calculated from finite one-loop self-interactions, and there is an exponential spacing in mass between the quarks and leptons.
