We are looking forward to welcoming colleagues to the Accounting and Business Research International Accounting Policy Forum (ABR-IAPF) at ESMT Berlin on December 16th and 17th.
The International Accounting Policy Forum (IAPF) is an annual special issue of Accounting and Business Research, first launched in 2006. The IAPF serves as a platform to disseminate the research and opinions of thought leaders in the international academic and professional accounting communities on important accounting policy issues. Building on ABR's long-standing association with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, the Forum plays a unique role in facilitating the exchange of ideas between academics, practitioners and regulators.
