Introduction

The American Journal of Business and Economic Development (AJBED) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal publishing rigorous research that advances understanding of firms, markets, and public policy—and how they shape inclusive and sustainable growth.

We welcome original research, reviews, short communications, data/method notes, case studies, and policy analyses spanning (but not limited to) macroeconomics and monetary/fiscal policy, development economics, industrial organization, trade and FDI, entrepreneurship and SMEs, corporate finance and governance, behavioral/experimental economics, labor and education economics, public policy and regulation, digital economy and fintech, sustainability/ESG, and impact evaluation.

Through rigorous peer review and transparent editorial practices, AJBED promotes reproducibility, open data where feasible, and dialogue between scholarship and practice.
