Most recently, on May 4, 2023, SCImago ranked prestigious scientific journals in SCOPUS, and JABES was evaluated by SCImago in the Q1 percentile of Economics, Econometrics and Finance. This achievement once again affirms JABES-E's academic reputation in the domestic and international scientific community.

SCImago (with headquarter in Spain) is a research organization whose mission is to provide information on the quality of scientific research by countries, research institutions, and the prestige of journals through the analysis of indexes based on the SCOPUS database built by Elsevier Publishing House (Netherlands) since 2004. SCImago ranks the quality of journals by the SJR index (SCImago Journal Ranking), which takes into account the number of citations each journal receives and the reputation of the journals that cite it. This index was developed by SCImago from Google’s website ranking algorithm (Google PageRank) that excludes self-quoted content, or considers other factors such as author diversity and content. Scimago Journal Rank has 4 percentiles. The journals in the Q1 percentile have the best quality, followed by the journals in Q2, Q3, and finally Q4.

The community of scholars and researchers interested in JABES is beyond Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, China, India, the United Kingdom, and the United States. This proves that in addition to countries in Asia, JABES is also interested by scholars in developed countries and this contributes to the academic prestige of UEH in particular and the Vietnamese academic community in particular.

Currently, JABES of UEH is waiting for the official results from the ABS Directory (an influential list of European scholars) and is working hard for the ACBES 2023 Annual International Conference in the direction of constantly improving high-quality and academic influence from global scientists. JABES is always ready to welcome the domestic and foreign academic community to submit papers to attend the ACBES Conference 2023.

Over 48 years of establishment and development, UEH has gradually affirmed our position as a solid research-oriented University through a series of methodical and continuous activities and policies on the development of academic capacity in terms of quantity and quality. The latest achievement gained by JABES is a great contribution to UEH's journey to becoming a Multidisciplinary University with an academic reputation and sustainable action in Asia by 2030.
