This recognition is a testament to the dedication and passion I have for environmental accounting research,” said Li, a professor of accounting at the <a href="https://www.utm.utoronto.ca/imi/">Institute for Management &amp; Innovation</a>, with a cross-appointment at the Rotman School of Management.</p> <p>Li,&nbsp;director of the master of management and professional accounting program at U of T Mississauga, studies the relationship between firms that voluntarily disclose their environmental strategies and their performance – both environmental and financial. He focuses on corporate environmental performance, corporate social responsibility and sustainability management.</p> <p>Richardson, a professor of accounting at the <a href="https://www.rotman.utoronto.ca/">Rotman School of Management</a>, is a capital markets researcher who has published numerous studies related to environmental accounting involving greenhouse gases and corporate social responsibility. He specializes in accounting-based valuation models and the value relevance for investors of financial statements. In 2022, Richardson was inducted into the Canadian Accounting Hall of Fame.</p> <p>The AAA award, presented in the form of unique glass art pieces and a $2,500 prize, will be given to Li, Richardson and their two co-authors at the 2023 AAA Annual Meeting next month in Denver, Colo.</p> <h3><a href="https://www.utm.utoronto.ca/main-news/utm-professors-research-green-corporate-accounting-practices-receives-prestigious-award">Read the U of T Mississauga story</a></h3> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-source field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">UTM</div> <div class="field field--name-field-top-story-hub-page- field--type-boolean field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Top Story (Hub page)</div> <div class="field__item">Off</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-add-new-story-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Add new tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/celebrates/awards-tags/institute-management-innovation" hreflang="en">Institute for Management &amp; Innovation</a></div> </div> </div> Mon, 10 Jul 2023 19:29:28 +0000 siddiq22 302202 at
