SALISBURY, MD---Dr. Hong Kim Duong, assistant professor of accounting in Salisbury University’s Franklin P. Perdue School of Business, recently earned two of the industry’s top awards for publications and research.

The Journal of International Accounting Research named her publication “National Culture and Corporate Governance” as its 2018 Best Paper Award.

Co-authored with Drs. Stephen Salter of Middle Tennessee State University and Helen Kang of the University of New South Wales, Australia, the paper examined the influence of national culture on corporate governance.

Co-authors were Marco Fasan from the University of Venice, Italy; and Giorgio Gotti of the University of Texas at El Paso.
