Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to look at new and emerging challenges to be considered and addressed in Corporate Reporting from different points of view. We invite manuscripts featuring original research that complements our understanding of the impact of new and future challenges on companies that might be disclosed to enhance the entity’s accountability and the trust of third parties.

We call for manuscripts that deal with all aspects of corporate reporting, including financial and nonfinancial issues, the impact of corporate governance mechanisms and governance reforms on the compliance with financial reporting standards and nonfinancial reporting references, the assurance of corporate reports, the quality and quantity of mandatory or voluntary corporate disclosure, the readability and utility of corporate reports, and impression management. Here, “nonfinancial reporting” refers to economic, social, and environmental issues but also risks and sustainable development goals. We also call for manuscripts that focus on the impact of digitalization and the current pandemic on corporate reporting practice, theory, regulation, and education and corporate reporting’s impact on the stock market.

We are interested in conceptual, theoretical, methodological, empirical, and systematic review studies.

Prof. Adriana Tiron-Tudor

The abundance of new innovative data sources creates opportunities and challenges for all professions and professionals working with information. One of these professionals is the management accountant (MA). Although their tasks have expanded over time and especially recently, MAs have not fully employed all the available internal and external data sources to describe, diagnose, visualize, predict and prescribe possible solutions that enable smart decisions with positive effects on businesses. Thus, the paper investigates the impact of Big Data, including Data Analytics, on MA’s job profile. Through a review of the most recent academic and professional publications, the paper contributes to the debate surrounding the redefinition of the role of MAs in organizations in a novel informational perspective of Abbott’s theory. The results could serve as a research agenda and incentive for further studies, as well as provide MAs with a guide on the topic of the enlargement of their role(s), respectively, the augmentation of their tasks and responsibilities regarding the analysis of Big Data. Furthermore, the research may provide both a rich and flexible framework to help practitioners in their analysis of potential risks, opportunities and challenges when handling Big Data, and a lens for professional accounting associations and bodies by helping them to prioritize the holding and seizing of jurisdictions as an imperative part of safety and security.
