The AASB is interested in research that has the potential to inform future standard-setting activities or contribute to the broader dialogue on financial and non-financial reporting.

If you are considering applying for the Australian Research Council's (ARC) prestigious Linkage Program have you considered the AASB as an Industry Partner?
What is the Linkage Program?
The ARC Linkage Program promotes research partnerships between researchers and organisations like businesses, industry groups, and government agencies. It focuses on knowledge transfer and collaboration, leading to advancements that benefit both researchers and the broader community.
Why partner with the AASB?
The AASB plays a vital role in developing and maintaining accounting standards that impact the Australian economy. Research is crucial for the AASB to set evidence-informed reporting standards, ensuring transparency, comparability, and high-quality financial and non-financial information.
While the AASB cannot guarantee the success of the applications, we will carefully assess collaboration/partnership requests and select projects closely aligned with our work. If your proposed research is aligned with the AASB work plan you may receive support from the AASB, such as financial contributions or/and in-kind resources, that you can include as part of your ARC Linkage application.
