European Research on Management and Business Economics

European Research on Management and Business Economics (ERMBE) was born in 1995 as Investigaciones Europeas de Dirección y Economía de la Empresa (IEDEE). The journal is published by the European Academy of Management and Business Economics (AEDEM) under this new title since 2016, it was indexed in SCOPUS in 2012, in Social Sciences Citation Index in 2019, and received its first Journal Impact Factor in June 2020. From the beginning, the aim of the Journal is to foster academic research by publishing original research articles that meet the highest analytical standards, and provide new insights that contribute and spread the business management knowledge. ERMBE is an international peer-reviewed open access journal. The articles published are related to any specialities in the fields of Business Economics (accounting, business management, finance, human resource management, marketing, operations management, organization theory, strategic management, etc.). The target audience is constituted by academics and researchers belonging to any university and by professionals and executives from the business world. The journal has been awarded in 2014 by the FECYT (Fundación Española de Ciencia y Tecnología / Spanish Foundation of Science and Technology) with the Certificate Quality of Excellence, obtained in the annual call for scientific and editorial quality of the Spanish scientific journals.
