Financial Executives International’s (FEI) Committee on Corporate Reporting (CCR) met in Stamford, CT, in June for its quarterly meeting to discuss the latest accounting and financial reporting issues facing the preparer community.

During those meetings CCR members held a public session with Russell Golden, Chairman of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), along with Board Members Daryl Buck, James Kroeker, Marc Seigel and Larry Smith, and Staff Members Susan Cosper and Alicia Posta to discuss current financial reporting issues including the FASB’s research agenda, revenue recognition, lease accounting, credit impairment, hedging, the FASB’s disclosure framework and other important topics.
