Readership overview

Academic subscribers read the journals because they want to keep up with the latest research, find out what colleagues are doing, disseminate and share research papers, receive accreditation for papers published, build their name and ultimately be the academic whose model was used and quoted by every leading academic and practitioner. They also like to have their own work published in the journals for recognition within the industry.

Practitioners read the journals because they also want to keep up with the latest research. Financial institutions need to be one step ahead of their competitors, and must use the latest research techniques to manage and measure their financial risks. A quantitative analyst and researcher may take one of the papers to see how it works in reality and also test papers against each other.

Editorial philosophy

Each of the six Risk Journals are dedicated exclusively to the measurement and management of risk or the development of innovative computational and modelling techniques relating to their specialism.

Risk Journals’ editorial mission is to endorse only the highest quality research papers, all peer-reviewed by leading specialists in the industry, and make them accessible to relevant practitioners and academics both in print and online.

Risk Journals ensure subscribers are always kept up-to-date with the ever-changing complexity behind the science of risk management to make certain that only original and innovative papers are published that will help the reader with real-life practical focus.
