International Finance aims to bridge the gap between theory and policy in
macroeconomics and microfinance. The journal welcomes literate, market
relevant and policy focused scholarship from legal experts as well as
economists.

The birth of the Euro, currency and banking crises, the future of monetary
policy, the revolution in electronic trading, reform of the Bretton Woods
institutions, the economic impact of hedge funds... Macro and financial
economists now have a unique new forum for analysis of these issues: one
where research can be applied to contemporary economic problems; where
methodologies support analysis, rather than being themselves on display;
where advocacy sustained by rigorous argument is encouraged; and where
publication is valued not for its own sake, but for its impact on a
knowledgeable and influential readership.

IF is not just another journal. It is a vigorous intellectual forum for
scholars who believe that it is necessary to be relevant as well as
original, to influence policy as well as to publish research.

IF is a scholarly journal where even the book review section stands out.
Reviewers are selected for their ability to write fluidly and analytically
across a given area, weaving in important new books and papers along the way
- in the style of The New York Review of Books.

IF is a journal which is read not only in scholarly circles, but in national
treasuries and corporate treasuries, central banks and investment banks,
international organizations and graduate degree programmes.

Unlike conference volumes, which typically focus on a single topic and have
a year or more lag before publication, IFs coverage is broad and timely.
Unlike policy journals with an invitation-only approach, which lean on
favoured authors and points of view, IF is open and inclusive. The approach
is aimed at ensuring that IF is consistently relevant, challenging and
thought provoking.
