MBA Masterclass with Prof Haresh Sapra

Thank you for joining us for our Executive MBA information session and MBA Masterclass with Haresh Sapra, Leon Carroll Marshall Professor of Accounting at Chicago Booth.

The Pitfalls of Transparency – Can Accounting Numbers  Undermine Financial Stability?

Professor Sapra will discuss whether the way accounting numbers are designed undermines their use in the regulation of banks. He will describe his new research on how providing transparent information to shareholders can create misleading information for supervisors who are interested in stability. What are the costs and benefits of accounting transparency, and what are the implications for financial stability?

This session will be preceded by a short presentation on our Executive MBA program. From our past experience the following questions are most frequently asked by prospective candidates:

• Why did you choose the University of Chicago Booth School of Business?
• How did you manage the workload during the MBA?
• How has the Chicago Booth MBA enhanced your career?
• What value has the alumni network brought to your business or personal life?
• What other benefits and advantages have you experienced as a result of Chicago Booth MBA?

As always, please feel free to bring a colleague who may find value in the Chicago Booth experience - perspective students and guests may register here.

Thank you once again for helping to build the brand we all share.
