We are inviting submissions for a two half-day online workshop on the economics of disclosure, information sharing, and secrecy. We welcome both theoretical and empirical contributions on all aspects of information disclosure (or non-disclosure) in economics, accounting, management science, and related disciplines. We expect to include eight papers plus discussants in the programme.

We encourage (but do not require) all presenters to share their manuscripts with the audience (and the wider public) via the conference homepage.

The workshop will be open to the public, and all workshop details, including the Zoom information and the programme, will be posted on http://www.diss-conference.com.
