The aim of the Journal of Climate Finance (JCLF) is to publish high quality articles in all fields of finance related to sustainable development and climate change. The JCLF encourages interdisciplinary research on theoretical, empirical, or policy-related subjects. The main purpose of this journal is to establish an international platform allowing financial economists, policymakers, and practitioners to present original research and join the ongoing debates in the broad areas of sustainable and climate finance. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: carbon finance, climate investment, climate financing, international climate finance, green finance, green financial system, modelling climate risks, policy issues of climate finance, and sustainable finance. The editorial team is willing to consider papers using innovative or interdisciplinary approaches.
The journal aims to publish scholarly articles on economic, financial, technological and legal asymmetries within and among markets in an increasingly globalized world.Asymmetries are broadly interpreted as economic relationships between trading partners with unequal market power and also in the narrow technical sense of dissimilar information between trading agents.Asymmetries also may arise in cases of economic, financial or currency crises. The wide range of dissimilar policy recommendations in such cases may also reflect asymmetric policy responses.Closely related to international economic asymmetries, one may find economic, legal and technological conditions differing from one economy to another because of the size of countries, their institutions and their history. Acknowledging and investigating such differences is also a concern of the journal.The recent global financial crisis has created numerous economic asymmetries. Topics of interest include: sovereign debt, banking fragility, corporate deleveraging, asymmetries in macro-prudential regulation between countries with high and low developed financial markets, persistent high unemployment, challenges in the conduct of appropriate monetary and fiscal policies, national versus supranational regulatory systems, consequences of the Euro-zone financial crisis, the future of the euro, global monetary and fiscal stability, strategies to stop the immense increases in fiscal deficits and to regain fiscal stability, regulatory systems limiting world-wide contagion effects, regulatory measures to increase the soundness of the banks' balance sheets and to supervise financial transactions between globalised banks, multiple equilibria in financial markets, wealth volatility, the behavior of commodity markets and changes in leading currency markets. Ethical, behavioral and political dimensions of crises are also included.Volumes 1 through 9 are available on line at http://www.apforum.o...
