About the Society
The SBE (Brazilian Econometric Society, Sociedade Brasileira de Econometria in Portuguese) is a nonprofit association that promotes the use of quantitative methods in the study of economic problems. It was founded in 1979. Currently, its main activities are the publication of its journal, the Brazilian Review of Econometrics, and its annual meeting.
The Journal
The Brazilian Review of Econometrics is published twice per year. It is also available online on an open-access basis. For further information, please visit its website.
