Structure of article: see the Template.

Article headline should be written in font size 16 bold letters and aligned to the left margin.

Author’s name should be written without titles or degrees and in font size 12 bold with a single space, size 10, between it and the text of article. The use of national characters should be avoided.

JEL Classification codes should be written below the keywords (the recommended number of codes: 3–5; http://www.aeaweb.org/jel/guide/jel.php).

The text of the article should be divided into chapters. The recommended structure for the paper can be found in the Template. Titles of chapters should be numbered (with the exception of the Introduction and Conclusions), written in bold type, and arranged from the left margin. Only two levels of chapter numbering are allowed. It is necessary to follow the format described below:

  • Arrangement into blocks;
  • Font style: Arial;
  • Font size: 10;
  • Indent each new paragraph 0.5 cm (except for the first paragraph of the chapter);
  • Spacing: single;
  • Include row numbers;
  • Include page numbers;
  • Do not use bullets;
  • Do not use footnotes.

Tables and figures are to be numbered, and the references must be in the text. The title of a table (Tab. 1:) or a figure (Fig. 1:) should be written in font size 10 bold, aligned from the left margin, and without underlining. Tables should have their titles written above them, while figures should have their titles written below. The figures (graphs, diagrams and pictures) should be visible, apparent and of a high publication quality. The source from which the author obtained the material should be written under each table and figure.

Formulas are to be numbered. The number should be written in font size 10 Arial in parentheses, aligned to the right margin, and next to the equation. A legend should follow the equation (explaining the variables, symbols, and acronyms used, not defined previously). The formulas should be further editable (MS Word Equation Editor).

Thousand separators, decimal points. The journal uses commas as thousand separators (EUR 21,000) and decimal points (p = 0.005). The values should have consistent decimal places.

Currency. Use either the euro or the U.S. dollar as the currency in computations and results (e.g., EUR 1,100; USD 500).

References to literature. The journal follows the latest APA citation style (APA 7; https://apastyle.apa.org/), which cites works by author and year. Authors may cite up to 50 literary sources (original papers), preferably recent, high-quality publications from journals indexed in Web of Science or Scopus, with emphasis on the last five years. Citations from inaccessible sources (e.g., without DOIs, reports, national journals, proceedings, theses) and non-English publications should be avoided. Such grey literature must not exceed 10% of the total references (including datasets). Self-citations are limited to two. All cited legislation and datasets must be listed in the References. Every reference have to correspond to an in-text citation, and vice versa. DOI identifiers are required in the reference list. If an author has multiple works from the same year, label them as 2025a, 2025b, in both text and references. Use of citation managers is recommended.

One author: As Thompson (2022) mentions... / (Thompson, 2022)
Two authors: Research by Rahman and O’Connor (2023)... / (Rahman & O’Connor, 2023)
