[News]

The International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board (IPSASB) held its first Research Forum on 17 September 2019 in Naples, Italy. More than 80 participants, from academia and standard-setting bodies discussed linkages between academia and the standard-setting process and current and committed projects on the IPSASB’s work program. One of the key points identified was the scope for academia to provide research input to potential IPSASB projects. 

IPSASB is offering grants of USD 1,500 for research under each of the following topics:

• The Presentation of Financial Statements in the Public Sector;
• Differential Reporting (Financial Reporting for Small and Medium Sized Public Sector Entities);
• Discount Rates in the Public Sector: Rationale for their Use and Determination; and
• Disclosures of Tax Expenditures.

The grants will be awarded by an academic advisory committee comprising representatives from IPSASB and the academic community, based on abstracts. Please provide your submission by 15 December 2019.
