Brian Mittendorf's research combines accounting, economics, and management perspectives to study financial disclosure, competitive strategy, and supply-chain decisions, with a growing focus on the nonprofit sector—particularly donor-advised funds (accounts that let people set aside charitable donations for tax benefits before directing them to specific causes) and how they affect charitable giving, tax policy, and political engagement by nonprofits. His work also examines topics like auditor rotation, disclosure to competitors, and how firms make sourcing and inventory decisions under uncertainty.
