Title: When Judgment Fails: the Risk in Financial Reporting

What do subprime mortgages, oil reserves, goodwill, stock options, and pension liabilities have in common? The answer: all require substantial judgment by senior management to provide reported numbers, and all provide direct examples of substantial reporting failures. Come hear our very special guest speaker, Professor Reidl, discuss his upcoming article about this timely subject in the Harvard Business Review.  He'll talk about how these failures happen and steps firms can take to avert them.
