Editorial Report--2011

Introduction

This report presents the main aspects of the development of RBFin in 2011, together with summary editorial and distribution statistics. RBFin maintained a Web interface for submission and evaluation of articles and free access to its content, continued the ongoing process of Editorial Board turnover and listed its contents in the OpenJGate directory of Open Journals. Although the review commenced use of English as the main language on the website as well as in the print version, articles in both Portuguese and English are accepted.
