This members-only webinar highlighted specific changes to the auditor’s report that were required beginning this year, such as auditor tenure and independence, and the most significant change—the communication of critical audit matters—required beginning next year. With that background, the primary focus of the webinar was a discussion on how investors might use the new information to make investing and proxy voting decisions.

Speakers:

• Jack Ciesielski, President & Portfolio Manager, R.G. Associates, Inc.

• Dennis McGowan, Technical Director of Professional Practice, Center for Audit Quality

• Samantha Ross, former special counsel to PCAOB Chair James R. Doty

Moderator: Jeff Mahoney, CII General Counsel
