# Quantitative Economics (quantitative-economics)

## Journal positioning

Quantitative Economics is an Econometric Society open-access journal devoted to quantitative economics that combines structural and computational modeling with data. It publishes both methodological contributions and quantitatively rigorous applied work — the common thread is taking models seriously enough to confront them with data through estimation, calibration, or computation. What wins here is a paper where the economic model and the quantitative implementation are both first-rate. The readership is structural and quantitative economists across micro and macro who care about model-based inference.

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 Econometric Society / journal site and the submission system.

## When to trigger

- The author names QE as the target venue.
- A structural / computational paper has a serious model-meets-data contribution and the author is choosing among quantitative venues.
- A reduced-form or theory paper has a strong quantitative-modeling extension that needs re-framing toward QE's strengths.
- The author needs QE's desk-reject risks and a credible quantitative / econometrics alternative list.
