Academic society of economists which publishes journals
The Econometric Society is an international society of academic economists interested in applying statistical tools in the practice of econometrics. It is an independent organization with no connections to societies of professional mathematicians or statisticians.
As of 2014, there are about 700 Elected Fellows of the Econometric Society, making it one of the most prevalent research affiliations.[2] New fellows are elected each year by the current fellows.[3]
The Econometric Society is led by a president, who serves a one-year term. Election as a Fellow of the Econometric Society is considered by much of the economics profession to be an honor.[3]
