Macroeconomics and Finance in Emerging Market Economies

Aims & Scope

Macroeconomics and Finance in Emerging Market Economies aims to be a platform for high quality studies in emerging market macroeconomics, finance and their interface.

This makes it a definitive source of information and a forum for economists, financial experts and policy makers.

Spillovers to, from and between emerging markets, and the interaction between macroeconomics and finance have had major global consequences, and will continue to shape the future.

Strong analysis as well as interpretation of change is required in this area for a wide readership.

Policy, market and regulatory evolution pose valuable research questions.

Macroeconomics and Finance in Emerging Market Economies invites original research contributions on emerging market macroeconomics and finance.

Theoretical and empirical papers of diverse yet rigorous methodologies are welcome.

We are particularly interested in papers that are conceptually innovative and relevant in the context of emerging economies.

While the focus is on academic contributions, those from industry analysts and policy makers are considered to provide alternative perspectives and an unbiased assessment of current trends.

Potential topics include growth, rebalancing, commodity prices, inflation, deficits, cross border movements in labour and capital, monetary, exchange rate and fiscal policy, currency and financial crises, regulation, financial markets, corporate finance and governance.
