This Volume 8 edition of the Journal, is another collection of scholarly researched articles on Economics, Banking and Finance issues of national and international relevance. The articles in the volume represent multi-disciplinary studies that are well researched to contribute to the pool of knowledge to foster development in our society.
The volume comprises nine (09) articles. The titles of the articles were deliberately made simple to enable nontechnical readers and upcoming researchers to understand. It is our expectations that, as you pick up a copy to read, may you find this little resourceful compilation of articles appropriate to achieve our common goal of disseminating research results to a greater number of readers and audience.
We have maintain online presence since the publication of volume 2 of the Babcock Journal of Economics, Banking and Finance, with online ISSN: 2814-130X. However, the submission of articles for review and publication process still remains the same. Also, submission of articles for assessment and possible publication in this journal is an ongoing exercise, especially as we strive to make it bi-annual publication.
Therefore, authors are expected to go through the guide for contributors before submitting their articles.
We hereby reiterate that the ideas, opinions and conclusions expressed in the various articles are entirely those of the authors and do not, in any way, represent those of the Editorial Board of Babcock Journal of Economics, Banking and Finance (BJEBF), the Departments of Finance, Department of Economics or that of Babcock University. We wish you a rewarding and resourceful reading!
