Special Issues

The Journal of Economic, Finance Research and Review (JEFRR) welcomes the creation, leadership, and submission of Special Issues—thematic collections of articles addressing timely, significant topics in economics, finance, and related fields.

What Is a Special Issue?

A Special Issue is a curated selection of high-quality research and review articles focused on a specific theme, emerging trend, or area of urgent scholarly interest within economics and finance. These issues are led by Guest Editors recognized for their domain expertise, offering a valuable forum for thought leadership and collaborative exploration.

Benefits of Special Issues
