8th Annual International Conference on Accounting and Finance 2018 | Global Science and Technology Forum (GSTF) | 23 July 2018 | Hotel Fort, 11 Canning Walk Singapore 178881

As financial markets integrate and business operations diversify, the need for adoption of common global accounting practices intensifies. Heightening this need further are inadequacies in reporting systems that sometimes undermine the credibility of published financial data. Incidences of inadequate reporting in turn have brought a call for research on how to align the content and presentation of corporate financial statements better with the interests of those statements’ users.

The premiere Academic Research Annual Accounting and Finance (AF) Conference 2018 is a research forum for academics, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in the areas of accounting and finance. Through its broadly defined scope, we welcome research in areas such as accounting history, finance, financial reporting and communication methodologies, interdisciplinary perspectives on accounting, management control, and public sector financial management. The AF conference provides an outlet for high-quality, refereed, empirical research on all aspects of accounting and finance. Purely theoretical research with the potential for empirical applications and in-depth literature reviews also are welcome.

Major topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Auditing, Accounting Education, Accounting History, Accounting and International Capital Market, Financial Analysis and Reporting, Global Accounting and IFRS, Corporate Governance, Accounting and Information systems, Data Analytics and Extensive Business Reporting Langiage (XBRL), Management Accounting and Control, Public Sector and Nonprofit Accounting, Taxation, Sustainability Accounting and Reporting, Environmental Accounting and other related topics.
