Since 2020, the Journal of Public and Business Accounting (JoPBA) has adhered to a semiannual publication cycle, producing two issues per volume each year: Issue 1 (January–June) and Issue 2 (July–December). This regular cadence is designed to balance timely dissemination of scholarship with a careful editorial process, enabling authors, reviewers, and readers to plan their contributions and engagements throughout the academic year.

Each issue compiles articles accepted during its respective six-month window and is prepared for release at the end of the period. Manuscripts undergo editorial screening followed by peer review to ensure methodological rigor, clarity of contribution, and relevance to the journal’s scope. Submissions are welcome year-round; accepted papers are scheduled for the next available issue in line with production timelines.

By maintaining this twice-a-year rhythm, JoPBA aims to provide a dependable forum for advancing knowledge in public and business accounting, curating high-quality research, case studies, and conceptual papers that speak to both academic and practitioner communities. When appropriate, thematic sections may be curated within regular issues to highlight emerging topics and foster focused scholarly dialogue.
