Not-for-Profit Executive Webinar: Governance, Risk and the Role of the Audit Committee



The compliance, economic and regulatory developments of the last two years have had a substantial impact on the expectations of the audit committee performance for not-for-profit organizations.  As a result, the charter and scope of audit committee duties should be reviewed and upgraded.    

Join Grant Thornton LLP and McDermott Will & Emery LLP for Governance, Risk and the Related Role of the Audit Committee.  At this webinar, we will discuss:  

• the audit committee's role in monitoring business performance and potentially excessive risk-taking by the organization
• proper coordination between the audit committee, and the compliance and finance committees
• Potential legislative changes that will affect executive compensation programs
• audit committee composition issues, including expertise, independence and conflicts of interest
• auditor independence issues in an era of consolidation in the public accounting sector
• internal investigations conducted by the audit committee
• internal employee whistle blowing mechanisms on audit/financial matters

• circumstances in which the audit committee should retain separate counsel
