Call for Submissions: Academy of International Business (AIB) 2022 Annual Conference
With the deadline for submission to the 2022 Academy of International Business (AIB) annual conference fast approaching (10 January 2022), we would like to solicit papers and panel proposals to the track of Finance, Accounting, and Corporate Governance. We would like to see more junior scholars forming panels independent of senior members, and to hear their voices and ideas in open forum (panel) settings. Please contact Track Co-Chairs, Christina Muehr (christina.muehr@wu.ac.at) and Anna Grosman (A.grosman@lboro.ac.uk) for any questions.Track information:The track emphasizes investment and financing choices, financial and corporate reporting, and risk management in multinational firms. Firms utilize various governance approaches and allocate decision-making to maximize organizational value while following financial reporting requirements of various nations. Corporate governance encompasses varying levels of internal and external oversight – board structures, compensation practices, ownership patterns, shareholder activism efforts, and disclosure choices across firms and national markets. We invite contributions on international finance and accounting, sustainable finance, MNE management, and corporate governance practices in an international context. We welcome novel research on the determinants of governance practices such as legal, financial, and political institutions, and their influences on performance outcomes, accounting standards, financial reporting quality, tax planning practices, financial risk management practices, CSR practices, bank lending, capital market development, venture capital development, and mergers and acquisitions. We also welcome submissions that address the influences of international investors on firm strategies, such as international private equity, sovereign wealth funds, international venture capital, international hedge funds, and international crowdfunding. In terms of the strategies and practices international investors follow and disseminate, papers could, for instance, address ownership changes or continuity, the limits of ownership and property rights, location-specific financial advantages, and the pursuit of sustainable practices in target firms.Keywords:
