Going to New Orleans to talk about fraud!

Posted on August 12th, 2006

On September 21, I will be presenting the keynote address for the Louisiana Society of CPAs at the Louisiana Business and Industry Conference. My presentation is based upon the article I wrote for Fraud Magazine (reprinted in Lagniappe – The Magazine for Louisiana CPAs), Financial Statement Fraud in the Katrina Aftermath:A Whirlwind of Opportunities. I will be talking to CFOs and accounting managers about the financial statement risks that they face following the hurricane, and strategies for avoiding the temptation to improperly report financial events.

I’m looking forward to seeing New Orleans for my first time. I have heard that it’s impossible to comprehend the magnitude of the damage unless you see it firsthand.
