Journal of Economic and Financial Sciences

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Economic and Financial Sciences aims to disseminate high-quality original research, fostering the advancement of science and innovation in the ever-evolving landscape of economic and financial sciences. The journal offers a broad and comprehensive platform for scholars, researchers, and practitioners involved in economic and financial sciences. Its scope encompasses a wide array of topics in economics, finance, and accountancy with a particular focus on emerging markets. Theoretical and empirical research in the fields of economics, finance, and accountancy as well as multi- and interdisciplinary inquiries that explore the intersection of these fields with other disciplines will be considered. The journal considers articles primarily from Southern Africa, but submissions from beyond the region may be considered if the research reported on is applicable to the region.
