CFRA Academy provides educational reports to help clients understand emerging accounting issues across industries and the implications for "at risk" companies. Some of our most recent reports include: Options Backdating, Pension Accounting, Accounting for Stock Option Compensation, IFRS, and Refco Lessons Learned. Industry reports deliver broad-based evaluations of key companies within an industry - enabling clients to compare peer companies against various accounting benchmarks - with a special emphasis on sustainability and quality of metrics.
The CFRA Conference Call Series provides regular briefings and information sessions for clients on a broad range of accounting, educational and industry-focused topics. In addition to providing a topical overview, these interactive calls often provide our clients with company-specific implications. Transcripts and replays are also available online, giving you instant access to the information you need, when you need it.
