Quantitative Economics

The Econometric Society was founded to promote studies that aim at a unification of the theoretical-quantitative and empirical-quantitative approaches to economic problems and that are penetrated by constructive and rigorous thinking.

Quantitative Economics was created in 2009 to provide a home for papers that fulfill this vision, complementing the role currently played by Econometrica.

Current Issue: Volume 12, Issue 1 (January 2021)
