Journal History

The Asia-Pacific Studies of Business Economics journal was founded to address the growing need for region-specific scholarly insight as the Asia-Pacific emerged as a central force in the global economy. Established in the mid-2025s, during a period marked by rapid digital transformation and intensified regional economic integration, the journal responded to increasing academic and policy interest in Asia-Pacific markets. Its early issues focused on post-pandemic recovery strategies, shifts in global supply chains, and the rise of regional trade agreements such as RCEP. Over time, the journal expanded its thematic reach to include innovation ecosystems, sustainable development practices, and financial inclusion initiatives within emerging and advanced Asia-Pacific economies.

Throughout its journey, Asia-Pacific Studies of Business Economics has maintained a strong commitment to interdisciplinary research, welcoming contributions from economics, finance, management, and public policy. It has actively supported comparative studies and case-based research that illuminate the unique economic behaviors and institutional dynamics of countries in the region. With growing citation impact and inclusion in major academic databases such as Google Scholar and DOAJ, the journal has become a respected voice in regional economic scholarship. Today, it stands as a vital resource for academics, policymakers, and business leaders seeking to understand and shape the evolving economic landscape of the Asia-Pacific.
