The Journal of Financial and Monetary Economics aims to create, maintain, and continuously develop an intellectual environment where new ideas, concepts, methodologies, and tools in economics, as well as in the broader social sciences and humanities, are debated, refined, and integrated into the national, European, and international scientific mainstream.

The journal includes most of the papers presented at the Annual International Scientific Conferences (EFM) organized by the ”Victor Slăvescu” Centre for Financial and Monetary Research, and it supports open and uninhibited debates across all economic and social fields among researchers, Ph.D. students, post-doctoral fellows, and representatives of public institutions and authorities at both national and European levels.

It aspires to contribute to the development of the Romanian economic school by addressing, both fundamentally and empirically, current and future, actual and potential issues such as: sustainable economic growth; translational economic development; the relationship between economic growth and well-being; economic forecasting and its challenges; testing economic hypotheses (both logically and econometrically); macroeconomic stability and microeconomic imbalances; sustainable public policies; good governance (at corporate, national, and European levels); and new methodologies in economic analysis (such as deterministic chaos theory, reaction-diffusion equations, bounded rationality, etc.).

The Journal of Financial and Monetary Economics is open to all those interested in serious, informed, non-orthodox, and courageous debates on the most difficult, relevant, and scientifically urgent issues in the field of economics.
