The Academy of Management Accounting and Control in Central Government

The Academy of Management Accounting and Control in Central Government (AES) is a research academy at Stockholm Business School.

The research conducted at AES primarily focuses on management accounting and control within central government, where administration is expected to uphold the principles of democracy, the rule of law, and efficiency. These principles lead to research questions that are both practically and theoretically relevant in the field of management control.

AES serves as a platform for collaboration among researchers from Swedish and non-Swedish universities, as well as between researchers and civil servants from central government agencies. At present, AES has 25 central government agencies as members, where civil servants and researchers regularly convene for presentations and discussions. The academy's research is closely aligned with the activities of its member authorities, and AES also offers a Strategy Network that provides open access to online meetings on strategic topics.

Research findings are disseminated through peer-reviewed papers, articles, books, and research reports. Additionally, they are shared through various channels such as national and international conferences, research seminars, workshops, and educational courses.
