Financial Reporting and ESG Research Cluster
The research cluster on Financial Reporting and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) was created in 2023 in response to expectations that companies should disclose both financial and non-financial information including corporate activities related to ESG. Accountants and finance professionals around the world discuss the best ways to create, disclose and use the information.
The mission of the Research Cluster is to promote collaborative research on Financial Reporting and ESG which benefits academic researchers, practitioners and policy makers, which educates students and industry professionals on emerging issues, and which offers insights that add value for businesses and society.
Leader: Dr. Liz Yanmin Gao, Associate Professor of Accounting and KPMG Research Fellow, Bob Gaglardi School of Business and Economics, Thompson Rivers University
