As of August 2024, the University of Economics in Bratislava (EUBA) has become a part of the prestigious international Finance, Economics and Banking Research Network (FEB-RN), marking another significant step in developing its research and academic activities on a global scale.

The Finance, Economics and Banking Research Network is a global collaboration of scientists, bringing together leading international institutions and experts in finance, economics, and banking. The network focuses on promoting the dissemination of innovative research, ensuring open access to high-quality academic studies and ongoing projects, and fostering interaction between academics, PhD students, and professionals. It aims to break down physical barriers to the free flow of information and ensure that the latest findings are accessible to all, regardless of geographic location or area of expertise.
