Centre for Business & Economic Research

Centre for Business & Economic Research (CBER) was founded in London in 2006 with the aim of inspiring, recognising and supporting excellence in Business and Economic Research. Currently, the Centre has three main areas of endeavour: organising an annual cycle of international academic conferences, producing academic journals, and offering bespoke consultancy projects both in the United Kingdom and further afield.

CBER works assiduously to facilitate international collaboration, providing an independent and credible source of advice, as well as contributing to academic debate and research. The Centre is fortunate to have a truly international following and is committed to encouraging knowledge sharing, foresight planning and greater interaction between academics, policy makers, thought leaders and those engaged in diverse commercial activities. 

We are delighted to announce that The Journal of Risk and Financial Management is the official publishing partner of the Centre for Business & Economic Research (CBER). Conference participants can submit their full-text papers to the Journal for consideration for publication pending further evaluation and APC. The journal is indexed in SCOPUS.

APC for the selected articles: The author of accepted papers will pay APC at £400 per paper (the author will make the payment directly to the Journal).

A Special Issue linked to the conference will feature original research contributions across cutting-edge areas such as financial econometrics, microeconomic theory, agent-based models, risk management, and mathematical methods in economics and finance. Emphasis will be placed on quantitative or analytical work that is fresh, insightful, and relevant to global challenges. Submissions should aim to extract valuable lessons from diverse international contexts and present forward-thinking analysis that advances contemporary economic discourse.
