The 43rd Burton Accounting conference will be held at the Columbia Business School on November 8 – 9, 2024. Since 1981, the Accounting Division at Columbia Business School has hosted the annual Burton Conference in honor of Professor Sandy Burton who served as the Chief Accountant at the SEC, the Deputy Mayor of Finance in New York and as the dean of Columbia Business School. Prof. Burton earned considerable respect for attempting to bridge the gap between accounting practice and academia. In keeping with that spirit, the conference aims to assemble an accomplished group of scholars and practitioners to discuss new research findings, ideas, methodologies and trends.

The 43rd Burton Accounting conference is open to submissions. The conference welcomes rigorous and innovative manuscripts on important issues concerning all areas of accounting. The selected papers will be discussed by leaders in the field.

TOPICS: Theoretical, empirical, and experimental studies that advance our understanding of topics in accounting.

PAPER SUBMISSION: Please submit papers through the submission link in the Burton Accounting conference website, https://cglink.me/2ca/r73511. There is no submission fee. The submission deadline is July 1, 2024.
