Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The landscape of international business and finance has become increasingly complex, shaped by globalization, technological disruption, sustainability imperatives, and geopolitical uncertainty. These forces are transforming how firms design strategies, manage risk, and respond to evolving stakeholder expectations across global markets. In this environment, international business and finance scholarship must pay closer attention to the financial mechanisms and risk-governance foundations that enable cross-border exchange, including payment and settlement infrastructures, foreign exchange exposure, country risk, and regulatory and institutional safeguards, particularly in and involving emerging economies.
This Special Issue of the Journal of Risk and Financial Management seeks to advance theoretical and empirical knowledge at the intersection of international finance, risk, and global strategy. We invite contributions that examine how firms and markets navigate volatile institutional environments, manage cross-border financial risks, and address mounting pressures for sustainable and ethical practices. Submissions may consider topics such as cross-border payments and settlement, FX and liquidity risk management, sovereign and country risk, financial regulation and compliance, sustainable finance and ESG-related risk, trade finance and supply-chain finance, fintech and digital globalization, and the growing influence of emerging economies in global markets. We also welcome work linking international marketing and consumer behavior to finance- and risk-centered mechanisms (e.g., transaction risk, trust, and country credibility cues in cross-border digital commerce).
We welcome conceptual, empirical, and methodological papers, as well as interdisciplinary perspectives that bridge business, marketing, economics, finance, management, and related fields. By bringing together diverse contributions, this Special Issue aims to generate deeper insights into international markets in an era defined by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and opportunity.
