MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION

1. The manuscript must be within 25-28 pages in length, prepared using Times New Roman, 12 size font, regular A4 or (8x11) paper layout, 1" margin on all sides, and double spaced throughout.

Page 1: This is the title page of the paper beginning g with the title of the paper on top of the page, bolded and centered, followed by the name(s) of author(s), institutional affiliation, full contact information, corresponding author (* indicate by an * at the end of the corresponding author name), email address(s) and submission date.

Page 2: Repeat the tile of the paper on top of page without any author information (for anonymity) and must have an abstract of no more than 100-200 words followed by a maximum of five keywords, and followed by three JEL Classification codes.

The body of the paper begins immediately after the JEL codes on Page#2. Begin with a section heading such as “Introduction”. Each section headings must be bolded and centered, and sub-headings (if any) in Italics at LHS.

Paragraphs must be indented to avoid ambiguities when a line ends on a full stop and when another paragraph begins. There is no need to have any space between paragraphs.

Figures and Tables should be numbered consecutively and have a self-explanatory short title. Avoid color figures and the use of vertical lines in tables. Any source or notes relevant for these must be added at the bottom.

All equations (expect for very short ones) should be displayed on a separate line. Equations which are cited in the main text should be numbered consecutively on the right margin, using Arabic numerals in parentheses.

End Notes: Footnotes are not allowed, but if any such notes need to be included, then these be placed in a separate section at the end of the paper but before the Reference list using the header “ End Notes”. All end notes must be numbered consecutively using superscript form such as: 1. The authors can provide the data if requested; 2. The data was obtained from primary survey.

References should be listed alphabetically by last name, first name and middle Initial of author(s), followed by Year in parenthesis (see examples below).
