The Governmental Accounting Board (GASB) is joining SIFMA to present, “What Municipal Analysts Need to Know about Governmental Accounting.”
This seminar will provide in-depth instruction on the rules that state and local governments follow when accounting for and reporting their finances in audited financial reports. It will cover the basics from the perspective of the financial statement analyst, focusing on how the accounting standards affect the information that analysts receive, to the significant new changes to government financial reports that analysts have seen or will soon see, such as the new fund balance classifications, the appearance of deferrals and the forthcoming pension information.
Registration includes a free copy of “An Analyst’s Guide to Government Financial Statements,” 2nd Edition, which will serve as the text for the session.
