Journal of Accounting and Management (JAM) is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that disseminates original and relevant research in accounting and management. JAM seeks contributions that develop theory, provide robust empirical evidence, address contemporary professional or organizational problems, and generate implications for scholarship, practice, business, public institutions, or society.

1. Journal Focus

JAM focuses on the creation, application, and critical evaluation of knowledge in accounting and management. The journal welcomes quantitative, qualitative, mixed-methods, conceptual, comparative, and interdisciplinary studies when the research question, analytical framework, and contribution are clearly connected to these disciplines.

Research may examine private enterprises, public organizations, nonprofit institutions, cooperatives, micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, financial institutions, entrepreneurial ventures, or other relevant organizational settings at local, national, regional, or international levels.
