The IAFA was established in 1986. It is an academic organisation whose aim is to promote high quality research and teaching of accounting, finance and related subjects, particularly in the Irish third level education sector. The association also provides many opportunities for networking within the academic and professional accounting communities. Activities of the IAFA include the association’s annual research conference, research methods workshops, a bi-annual sponsored seminar series with presentations from eminent internationally recognised academics and involvement in various sponsorship of emerging researchers at international doctoral colloquia.

Publications by the IAFA include the Irish Accounting Review, published bi-annually, a directory of Accounting & Finance staff in all third level institutions on the island of Ireland and a regular newsletter.
