The Journal of Insurance Issues (JII) invites your research submissions for consideration for publication. First published as the Journal of Insurance Issues and Practices in 1979 before being rebranded as the Journal of Insurance Issues in 1984, the JII is published twice annually by the Western Risk and Insurance Association and co-sponsored by the Southern Risk and Insurance Association.

The JII is a peer‐reviewed scholarly journal and includes rigorous papers focused on theoretical and empirical research in the field of risk, insurance and actuarial-related topics. The Journal encourages new perspectives and is open to all research methods including, but not limited to, empirical studies, mathematical proofs, laboratory experiments and simulations. All manuscripts, including empirical manuscripts, need to test, extend and/or develop new theory that is relevant and timely for public policy or practitioners. The main criterion for which all manuscripts are judged is their impact on the risk management and insurance fields as a whole. Each year, one article from that year’s published articles is selected for the prestigious Donald Hardigree Award.

The JII is indexed by the ABDC Journal Quality List as a B-level journal and is also included in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) and in Cabell’s. All issues of the JII are available online through JSTOR, as well as Business Source Complete, ABI/INFORM Global, and IDEAS (RePec), among others.

For more information about the submission and review process, the JII and/or its sponsoring associations, see the JII website at www.insuranceissues.org.
