Dr. Benjamin Posmanick, assistant professor of finance, traveled with Alexander Obie, an undergraduate accounting student, to the Academy of Economics and Finance conference in Orlando, Florida, where Obie presented a paper co-authored with Posmanick
and Dr. Bobby Chung, assistant professor of finance.
The paper examines the changes to corporate board composition caused by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and shows that the compositional changes did not improve the quality of financial statements.
