All articles to be published are processed through a blind referral system by a panel of experts. The responsibility for opinions in signed articles, studies and other contributions rest entirely on their authors and publication does not necessarily constitute endorsement of the same by AIUB.

Manuscript submitted for publication must be original. If a paper contains material reproduced from other sources it must be acknowledged or necessary permission should be submitted along with the paper.

At least two copies of the manuscripts, along with a copy in the floppy disk, and data, sources of data and regression results (where applicable) should be submitted for consideration to the editorial board. Papers submitted for consideration must be typed in A4 sized offset paper. The manuscripts should be typed, double-spaced throughout (excepting the abstract) with wide (default) margins, printed on one side of the paper only.

Tables and figures should be placed on separate sheets with an indication for inserting table/figures in the text as to their appropriate placement. Tables and figures should be numbered consecutively.

Normally, papers submitted for consideration should be restricted to 20-25 typed pages (including annexes and references). The pages should be numbered consecutively.

The paper should have a title page containing the title of the paper, name of the author, mailing address, telephone number and e-mail address. Incase of joint authorship, correspondence will be made to the first name author only unless otherwise indicated.

The second page of the submitted paper should contain the title and single-spaced abstract of the paper not exceeding 200 words.

The main paper should begin from third page and should not relist the title or author. The paper should be divided into sections and subsections to aid smooth reading. Section headings should be hold in all capital letters while subsections should be hold upper lower cases.

Footnotes should be avoided as far as possible. Essential notes should be numbered consecutively in the text and grouped together at the end in an annexure. Equations should be referenced by consecutive numbering throughout the text, on the right hand side of the page, using (1), (2) etc.
