Dr. Jan vom Brocke, Visiting Professor at the University of Liechtenstein, ranks 21st in the current list of the most research-intensive economists from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland published by the German business magazine Wirtschaftswoche.

The academic ranking, compiled by the KOF Swiss Economic Institute at ETH Zurich for Wirtschaftswoche, evaluates publications by business economists between 2020 and 2024 who are affiliated with university chairs, Fraunhofer Institutes, and Max Planck Institutes in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. To determine the rankings, economists analyzed contributions from nearly 860 business administration journals worldwide. Books were not included in the evaluation, but peer-reviewed journal articles that had been accepted but not yet published were counted.

The bibliometric web portal Forschungsmonitoring, operated by the KOF Swiss Economic Institute at ETH Zurich, served as the data source. The reference date was August 1, 2024.
