About JAEBR
JAEBR is a quarterly, peer-reviewed, academic journal published in Burnaby, Canada (ISSN 1927-033X). The journal devotes special attention to emerging markets economics, but it is open to high-quality papers from all fields of applied economics, business and finance. We prefer empirically oriented papers, but do not exclude review articles or theoretical contributions provided that they are of high quality and relevant to the journal’s aims. Among empirical papers, we prefer those that are relevant to a broad international audience, i.e., papers covering a range of countries or analyzing topics that are clearly relevant outside a single country. The journal is particularly interested in empirical papers with significant policy implications.
