• Insurance: in or out of the ‘too difficult’ box?
• Does every accounting issue need a solution?
• The ‘too difficult’ box: the next big accounting issue?

Each session is led by an expert academic and includes a practitioner response and an opportunity to ask questions. This year’s academic speakers include Mary Barth and Katherine Schipper and Hans Hoogervorst will also be speaking.
