About Journal
The International
Journal of Forecasting publishes high quality refereed papers
covering all aspects of forecasting. Its objective (and that of the IIF) is to
unify the field, and to bridge the gap between theory and practice, making
forecasting useful and relevant for decision and policy makers. The journal
places strong emphasis on empirical studies, evaluation activities,
implementation research and ways of improving the practice of forecasting. It
is open to many points of view and encourages debate to find solutions for
problems facing the field.

General Guidelines for Authors
It is important that
the file be saved in the native format of the word processor used. The text
should be in single-column format. Keep the layout of the text as simple as
possible. Most formatting codes will be removed and replaced on processing the
article. In particular, do not use the word processor's options to justify text
or to hyphenate words. However, do use bold face, italics, subscripts,
superscripts etc. When preparing tables, if you are using a table grid, use
only one grid for each individual table and not a grid for each row. If no grid
is used, use tabs, not spaces, to align columns.
