June 24 Webcast: FASB-IASB Path to Convergence-New Financial Instruments Proposals and What Audit Committees Need to Know

Posted: 18 Jun 2010 12:18 PM PDT

The financial crisis has highlighted the need for comparability in financial reporting globally, and for increased audit committee oversight of that reporting. High-priority areas include fair value and financial instruments.

To improve comparability in those areas, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and its international counterpart, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), have been working jointly on projects to converge U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), but with mixed results. The FASB and IASB are nearing solutions that would converge the fair value concept in U.S. GAAP and IFRS, but not its use in accounting for financial instruments. The FASB is set to release for public comment its proposal on the accounting for financial instrument that, if finalized, would create differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS.

This webcast will provide an overview of the FASB proposal on the accounting for financial instruments, the potential U.S. GAAP/IFRS differences, and what audit committees need to know so that their organizations are in position to get involved and become part of the process to improve that reporting going forward.

Please join our panelists Linda MacDonald, FTI Consulting, Esther Mills, Accounting Policy Plus, and Michael R. Young, Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP, as they discuss these emerging issues.

This free webcast is scheduled for Thursday, June 24 2010 at 2 p.m. Eastern. To attend, please register below.

June 23 Webcast: White Collar Criminal and SEC Cases – New Issues and Challenges

Posted: 18 Jun 2010 12:10 PM PDT

ag_logopostAllegations of securities fraud – from insider trading and Ponzi schemes to fund mismanagement and failure to disclose – continue to dominate the financial media. A panel of securities experts from Analysis Group and Steptoe & Johnson LLP will look behind the headlines and explore trends emerging in white collar criminal and securities regulatory cases — and implications for attorneys who represent the defendants, including individuals, involved in these investigations and prosecutions.

Topics to be discussed in this webcast include

  • Trends in insider trading cases;
  • Current status of Ponzi scheme prosecutions;
  • SEC Enforcement Division initiatives – the Goldman case;
  • New perspectives on issues of materiality, the quality of disclosure, and apportionment of risk; and
  • The role — and qualifications — of fact witnesses

Our panelists will draw on case experience, including the high-profile Bear Stearns hedge fund managers criminal trial, United States v. Cioffii.

Please join Maureen Chakraborty, Ph.D., Managing Principal, Analysis Group; Michael C. Miller, Partner, Steptoe & Johnson LLP; and moderator Marnie Moore, Principal, Analysis Group as they address these issues and your questions in this free webcast.

Hoax Press Release Prompts SEC Investigation

Posted: 18 Jun 2010 12:03 PM PDT

A fake press release was issued on PR Newswire this week, in the US and UK, about General Mills. The release falsely suggested President Obama had ordered an investigation into General Mills’ supply chain. PRWeek reports that the incident  raises fundamental questions about the procedures and checks carried out by information distribution services before they send out items on their networks.

PR Newswire says it is "not at liberty to discuss anything further because there is an investigation pending with the SEC and possibly law enforcement officials."

PR Week: Hoax press release cause for alarm
