Access, Archiving and Funding Model of the Journal
This section explains how readers access the content of the journal “Business Consultant”, how published papers are archived, and what financial model supports the journal’s publishing activities.
Access to the Journal
Access to the scientific and professional journal “Business Consultant” is available exclusively to subscribers. After completing the subscription, users receive login credentials (username and password) through the official FINconsult online platform, which provide access to all available issues of the journal in electronic format.
The subscription allows users to read, download and cite published papers in accordance with academic integrity standards and proper source attribution. Unauthorized sharing of login credentials with third parties is not permitted.
Archiving
All published papers are permanently stored on the servers of the Educational–Consulting Company FINconsult Tuzla, as well as within the official digital archive of the journal, accessible to subscribers via the online platform.
The journal is committed to the long-term preservation of its digital content and ensuring stable, uninterrupted access to all previously published issues. In the event of technical changes, upgrades, or system migration, FINconsult guarantees continuity of access to the archive.
Funding and Sources of Income
The journal “Business Consultant” is primarily funded through a subscription-based model and institutional support from the Educational–Consulting Company FINconsult Tuzla, along with occasional project-based activities that contribute to the development of scientific and professional publishing.
Funding sources do not, in any way, influence editorial independence, the peer-review process, or the criteria for accepting manuscripts. The editorial board retains full autonomy in all publication-related decisions.
Advertising and Direct Marketing
The journal may occasionally publish advertisements or promotional content related to economics, finance, accounting, taxation, management, and contemporary business practices. All advertisements are clearly separated from scientific content and have no influence on editorial or peer-review decisions.
Notifications regarding calls for papers, new issues, conferences, educational programs, and other journal-related activities are sent selectively and moderately, solely for informational purposes. The journal does not engage in aggressive or misleading marketing practices. Recipients may request removal from the mailing list at any time.
