# Journal of Banking and Finance (journal-of-banking-and-finance)

## Journal positioning

The Journal of Banking and Finance is an Elsevier journal and a broad, large-volume outlet for applied empirical work across banking and finance: bank risk and regulation, credit, markets, asset pricing, corporate finance, and international finance. It is a solid field journal rather than an elite-tier or top-3 venue, valued for breadth and a steady throughput of well-executed applied work. The readership is the wide applied finance community, including practitioners and policy-adjacent researchers.

This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the Elsevier / JBF site and the editorial submission system.

## When to trigger

- The author names JBF (or a broad applied finance outlet) as the target venue.
- A solid applied empirical finance paper does not clear the elite-field bar but is well-executed and clearly scoped.
- A banking/risk/regulation paper needs a broad, credible home with reasonable review odds.
- The author needs JBF's desk-reject risks and a credible field / elite-field alternative list.
