  1. Introduction

    This report presents the main aspects of the development of RBFin in 2015, together with summary editorial and distribution statistics. RBFin maintained an Internet interface for free submission and access to its contents, and for article evaluation, continued the ongoing process of Editorial Board turnover, and also indexed its contents in Proquest. Although the review commenced use of English as the main language on the website as well as in the print version, articles in Portuguese are still accepted. This is an intermediate step towards full conversion to English in the future.

  2. SBFin Best Paper Award

    The SBFin Best Paper Award for an article published in 2014 (volume 12) was awarded during the Brazilian Finance Meeting in July 2015.
