Submission of a letter to the Banking and Finance Letters will be taken to

accepted letters. This publishing agreement should be completed and returned
to the editorial office. It is a condition of publication that authors assign
copyright or license of the publication rights in their articles, including
abstracts, to the International Economic Society. This enables us to ensure
full copyright protection and to disseminate the article, and of course the
Journal, to the widest possible readership in print and electronic formats as
appropriate. Authors are themselves responsible for obtaining permission to
reproduce copyright material from other sources.

Permission to publish illustrations must be obtained by the author before
