Good companies as well as bad can turn to financial shenanigans if management sets the wrong example. Most companies leave telltale signs of their fraudulent behavior, but auditors and analysts must be independent, imaginative, and skeptical in their examination of company accounts if they expect to find these signs. Dr. Schilit has been a leading spokesman before the U.S. Congress, regulators, and global media outlets about accounting tricks and the early warning signs of business deterioration in public filings. He is the author of Financial Shenanigans: How to Detect Accounting Gimmicks and Fraud in Financial Reports, now in its 3rd edition. You will not want to miss Dr. Schilit’s engaging discussion on financial shenanigans prior to the farewell breakfast Wednesday morning.
