The first impression of the highly modern building, where everything revolves around football, was truly impressive. This was followed by very insightful perspectives on how International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are applied in a global organization.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the students\u2019 knowledge was put to the test. Not only their IFRS expertise, but also their football knowledge. Which one was stronger? We\u2019ll leave that open as some food for thought. \u26bd?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A big thank you to Marco Passardi, not only for preparing the students to become experts in IFRS, but also for making this visit and the glimpse into FIFA\u2019s accounting and reporting practices possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Afternoons like these underline the value of applied learning at the Lucerne School of Business. The networking, the questions and the curiosity all contribute to shaping the next generation of finance professionals and decision-makers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An afternoon to remember!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"detail__member\">\n\t\t<h1 class=\"detail__member--title\">Autor: Prof. Dr. Marco Passardi<\/h1>\n\t\t<figure class=\"detail__member--img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"153\" height=\"198\" src=\"https:\/\/hub.hslu.ch\/financialmanagement\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/sites\/16\/2012\/10\/passardi-marco.png\" class=\"attachment-normal size-normal\" alt=\"\" \/> -->\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hub.hslu.ch\/financialmanagement\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/sites\/16\/2012\/10\/passardi-marco.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t<div class=\"detail__member--content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"detail__member--content--description\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hslu.ch\/en\/lucerne-university-of-applied-sciences-and-arts\/about-us\/people-finder\/profile\/?pid=1828\" target=\"_blank\">Prof. Dr. Marco Passardi<\/a> is a Professor of Accounting at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts.\r\nHe teaches at the Institute of Financial Services Zug (IFZ) of the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts and serves as a lecturer at the University of Neuch\u00e2tel and ETH Zurich.
