Matching Internal Controls to Real Life Change
Field of Study: Auditing
Based on our previous coverage of the issue, you may assume that the accounting and auditing regulators - including the PCAOB and the SEC - are "anti-non-GAAP." Our cameras were on hand at the recent FEI conference on current financial reporting issues, where a panel of leading regulatory officials and expert commentators explained how you can successfully match internal controls with current real-life changes and challenges, such as the use of non-GAAP metrics.

SEC Chief Accountant: Priorities and Current Issues
Field of Study: Accounting
As part of its mission, the SEC's Office of Chief Accountant ensures that financial statements are presented fairly. The Commission insists that companies, when a recently issued accounting standard has not yet been adopted, must disclose the potential effects of the future implementation in their interim and annual filings. Wesley Bricker, the SEC's chief accountant, expresses his expectation that these disclosures will become more robust, as well as more quantitative, as the effective date of the new accounting standard approaches.

Field of Study: Management Services
Most employers are increasingly aware that immigration violations can result in substantial civil, and even criminal, penalties. An additional consequence of those sanctions is the "bad press" that can do lasting harm to an enterprise's reputation. Dana Bucin, a partner in the firm of Murtha Cullina LLP, analyzes how the Trump administration and the Congress are likely to affect your enterprise's responsibilities for compliance with immigration laws and enforcement priorities.

Field of Study: Management Services

Ron Temske, vice president of security solutions for Logicalis U.S., explains what you can do to manage cyber threats from within your own organization.
