Nobel Prize in Economics
It is worth emphasizing that the name "Nobel Prize in Economics" is unofficial.
The official name of the award, which is not Nobel's legacy, is "The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel."
The prize has been awarded since 1968. That year marked 300 years since the founding of the Swedish State Bank.
By the way, this organization is responsible for allocating to the Nobel Foundation the amount that corresponds to the Nobel Prize.
