Jerusalem bids farewell to Bar-Yosef

The Hebrew University of Jerusalem officially bids farewell to and thanks Sasson Bar-Yosef, now professor at Bocconi, for his nearly 30 years of dedicated service in research and teaching, by organizing, together with the Jerusalem School of Business Administration, a conference in his honor on July 11 and 12.

Bar-Yosef left the Hebrew University last autumn after being called to take up a position as professor in accounting in Bocconi.

Experts in finance and accounting will participate from, among others, New York University, London Business School and Columbia University. From Bocconi will be present Franco Amigoni, director of the Department of Accounting, and professors Antonio Marra, Andrea Dossi and Pietro Mazzola. Annalisa Prencipe will present her paper 'Does mandatory audit firm rotation really improve audit quality?'.
