Research Interests

My PhD thesis examined the due process related to the development of the IASB’s revised (2018) conceptual framework, internal coherence of the framework with new and amended International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and framework consistency with established accounting principles such as stewardship, reliability and (in particular), asymmetric prudence. 

More broadly, my areas of research interest include:

1) Financial and corporate reporting

2) Conceptual frameworks of accounting, particularly IFRS

2) Standard-setting, particularly IFRS
