International Journal of Managerial Finance
International Journal of Managerial Finance
The International Journal of Managerial Finance provides a forum for the dialogue and discourse of research and new insight into the financing decision. It is not only important to understand the functioning of financial markets and instruments, but also the process by which investment and business financing decisions are reached. The Journal is interested in any area of business research that focuses on the financial decision-making process.
Currently the journal has issued two calls for papers:
