The purpose of the article is to analyze retrospective data on the laureates of the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel for the years 1969-2022 and to try to predict three parameters of 2023: the number of scientists who will receive the award; the part of the world in which the place of work of the laureate(s) is located; age of laureate / average age of laureates. During the years 1969–2022, the prize was awarded 54 times, and 92 people became its laureates. 74 awardees are affiliated with North America. The age of most scientists at the time of awarding was from 61 to 70 years. According to the obtained forecast trend models, in 2023 the laureates of the prize will be 3 people, representatives of higher education institutions from North America, whose average age will be in the range of 61–70 years.Citas
