The Journal of Investment Management is an international journal, with its Advisory Board based in Lafayette, California. It is a quarterly journal which bridges the theory and practice of investment management and serves as a teaching resource for academia. It is a high quality, fully refereed publication which has an electronic, as well as printed version.

The framework for editorial review is fundamental to its mission. Aside from the double blind refereeing of all manuscripts, authors are encouraged to place equations in a technical appendix with each equation accompanied by a descriptive interpretation in words.

Other features of JOIM include a Practitioners Digest which highlights the practical significance of each manuscript; an Insights section where leading authorities from academia and the profession share insights or thoughts; Case Studies on topics of timely interest; a Review of Working Paper Abstract, including important new work or additional material related to one of the papers published; a review of street research which covers rigorous research material produced by Wall Street; and Book Reviews.

JOIM’S overall goal is to be mindful of the need to present the very best quality material in a form appealing to the practitioner, student and academic. For full details visit www.joim.com
