SOX 404 Compliance: A How-To Guide
If you're a public company accountant, you've spent more than a few hours
worrying about reporting your end product and Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley.
And if you work at a medium- or small-sized company, you're especially
concerned about meeting the new requirements without breaking your budget.
This seminar was designed with that situation in mind.
Medium- and small-sized companies don't have the resources of an IBM or Microsoft to
devote to Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. Nevertheless, compliance is still mandatory.
This seminar provides the practical knowledge to scope, manage and complete your Section
404 requirements in a cost-effective way.
Discover how executive and steering committee support can help you organize and define the
project. Learn exactly how much scoping you have to do and how to use existing systems and
processes to do it. Cover documentation, key controls, testing, significant deficiencies,
material weaknesses and other issues, all from the point of view of a finance professional
working in a medium-or small-sized company.
Corporate Finance
Corporate finance helps create value for a company through various functions that include
everything from bill paying to cash management to forecasting the value of acquisitions
to investment strategies. If you're looking for a good update into the world of corporate
finance and how it operates, this is the seminar you want.
You'll review the various functions performed by the corporate finance department,
focusing specifically on long-term financing and investment as keys to growth.
You'll understand how the department operates in relation to other departments and how
its decisions directly impact profitability and shareholder value.
Here are a few of the many topics you'll review: valuation models, working capital
management, short-term borrowing, debt and equity as long-term financing strategies,
lease vs. buying decisions and increasing shareholder value, among others.
