  • Cognitive bias: The hidden psychology of decision-making
    2026/08/04

    (This is an encore presentation of this INTHEBLACK podcast episode, first published on February 3, 2026)

    Cognitive bias. It quietly shapes many of the decisions made in accounting and finance – often without you realising it.

    This unintended bias can become a risk if left unchecked – especially in professions built on precision, trust and ethical responsibility.

    Drawing on real-world examples, this episode explores the diverse types of cognitive bias, and how they can impact accounting and finance professionals in our day-to-day work.

    Key learnings include:

    • Why cognitive bias exists and when it becomes a professional risk
    • How common biases affect financial judgement
    • The ethical consequences of bias in accounting and finance
    • How organisational culture can reduce or reinforce biased thinking
    • Practical steps individuals can take to challenge assumptions and improve decisions
    • How the rise of AI and automation adds a new layer of complexity to decision-making

    The discussion also shows how biases such as confirmation bias, anchoring and overconfidence quietly influence decisions, often without conscious awareness.

    Host: Tahn Sharpe, Editor, CPA Australia

    Guest: Dr Victor Goh Weng Yew, a PhD in applied psychology and Associate Professor at the Department of Psychology at HELP University in Malaysia, where he is also the acting dean.

  • Is HECS still delivering on its original promise?
    2026/06/23
    HECS transformed access to higher education in Australia and became one of the country's most influential public policy innovations. But nearly four decades on, rising student debt, indexation concerns and changing graduate outcomes are raising fresh questions about whether the system still works as intended. This episode examines the origins of the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS), and how its income-contingent loan model influenced education funding around the world. It also explores the challenges facing the system today and the policy choices that could shape its future. Key points covered: Why HECS was introduced and the problem it was designed to solve How income-contingent loans changed access to university How much today's HECS has changed from its original design Assessing the Job-ready Graduates program in 2020 Whether rising student debt is undermining the original policy goals The impact of indexation and changing fee structures Potential reforms and what they could mean for students and taxpayers Tune in now.
