4th edition of SARAC will be held in Davos, Switzerland on February 6th and 7th, 2025
It is our great pleasure to invite you to attend the 4th edition of SARAC, co-organized by the University of St. Gallen’s Institute of Accounting, Control and Auditing (ACA) and the University of Lausanne’s Department of Accounting and Control (DAC). On February 6th and 7th, 2025, the conference will take place in Davos, Switzerland.
SARAC aims to bring together experienced researchers, early career researchers, and PhD students to exchange research ideas and projects in one of the most famous Swiss Alps ski resorts. This time, the conference will take place in a unique conference location and home to the World Economic Forum: The Congress Centre Davos.
We welcome submissions of papers in all areas of financial and management accounting. We encourage submissions of empirical studies employing novel data and approaches in terms of data gathering (e.g., field studies, experiments, hand-collected) and/or settings (e.g., private firms, European data, banks, financial services) that are of potential interest to regulators and practitioners.
