Journal Issues:

Participants will have the opportunity to submit their papers to various journals:

Journal of Corporate Finance
In consultation with the editors of the Journal of Corporate Finance, the conference organisers encourage conference papers to be submitted to the journal if they fit the scope of the JCF. Conference papers submitted to the JCF will go through the regular reviewing process.

Economic Modelling
The conference organizers, in liaison with the editors of Economic Modelling, will invite the authors of selected high quality papers that fall within the general remit of the journal, to submit their manuscript to the journal. The editors will ensure that the selected papers undergo the normal reviewing process on a fast-track basis.

Applied Economics Quarterly
A special issue of selected high quality papers from the conference will be published under the guest editorship of Theodore Panagiotidis. Contributions from
all areas of economic policy are invited, in particular, growth, labor, finance and industrial organization.
