About Us
The Kaduna Business and Management Reviews (KBMR) is a
double-blind peer-reviewed, open-access journal published twice a year by the Department of
Business Administration and Entrepreneurship, Faculty of Management Sciences, Kaduna State
University.
Our purpose
KBMR's principal goal is the promotion of academic excellence in research in the management
sciences, and the exchange of information between the academic world, the professions and
business. Each issue is put together with practitioners as well as researchers in mind, and
articles are selected to give the reader an analytical, applicable approach to managerial
problems.
In practice that means work on how organisations actually perform: ownership structure and
board attributes against financial results, service quality and customer loyalty, financial
literacy and agent banking among small firms, employee engagement and collective bargaining,
and the management of public institutions that behave, increasingly, like businesses.
Open access
Everything KBMR publishes is free to read, download and share from the day it appears.
There is no subscription, no paywall and no embargo period. Publication is funded by author
charges, set out in full under Fees and Charges in the
Author Guidelines.
Submissions

preparation, how review works, fees, ethics and copyright. Published work is in the
Archives.
