Dr Carolyn Cordery on a History of Financial Reporting – recorded live at Te Papa for ‘Future prospects for Charity Law, Accounting and Regulation’ conference on 12 April 2019

Carolyn is an expert on the history of financial reporting – in this interview we spoke in front of a live audience of almost 200 at a conference held at Te Papa in Wellington on 11-12 April 2019.  In this wide ranging interview we discuss the history of what might sound like a dull topic by jumping back in time ancient Egypt as well as fish hooks in colonial New Zealand and what has led to our current reporting standards.  I have been on the committee organising this conference which brought around 40 speakers from around the world together.  This session broke up the panels with a great analysis of an interesting but misunderstood topic.

There was a technical issue with the audio so it is not as good as I would have liked, here is the video which was also recorded the audio
