<strong>The</strong> <strong>Economic</strong> Journal Referee <strong>Prize</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Economic</strong> Journal depends greatly on the service of its many referees<br />
for the functioning of the peer review process. While many referees help us<br />
tremendously with their comments, some of our referees contribute beyond<br />
the call of duty through their thoroughness and constructive feedback to<br />
the authors. This service in the profession rarely gets acknowledged. Starting<br />
in 2010, the <strong>Economic</strong> Journal now recognises the contribution of these<br />
exceptional referees with an annual referee prize of £500. We thank all of them<br />
for their outstanding support of the Journal, and the service they have provided<br />
to the authors.<br />
