Some of the brightest minds in accounting and finance recently came together to discuss key trends and research at the second Bretton Woods Accounting and Finance Ski Conference hosted by the UNH Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics.
Around 80 academics attended the conference, held from March 13 to 16 at Bretton Woods’ historic resort. They represented universities across the country and internationally, including Harvard, Yale, the University of Pennsylvania, Stanford and Shanghai University of Finance and Economics.
Researchers delved into various subjects over three days of presentations and led discussion forums.
Overall, 21 papers were accepted out of 274 submissions to the conference, an acceptance rate of 7.7%, consistent with the elite-level accounting and finance conference, according to Stephen Ciccone, executive chair of the conference and associate professor of accounting and finance at Paul College. The 274 submissions also represent an almost 20% increase over last year’s inaugural conference.
Thank you to Ciccone and:
Committee Chairs: Zhaozhao He, Safayat Hossain, Steve Irlbeck, and Scarlett Song.
Committee Members: John Hasseldine, Huimin Li, Yixin Liu, Svetlana Petrova, Catherine Plante, Viktoriya Staneva, Wenjuan Xie, and Emily Xu.
