FRC image

As an AICPA member you will find resources to assist you across the entire financial reporting process. Whether you are involved in accounting, preparing financial statements, or performing compilation, review, audit, attest, or assurance and advisory engagements, this new Center will support you in the execution of high-quality financial reporting by providing:

  • Financial reporting news and developments
  • Financial reporting guidance and resources such as articles, presentations, and frequently asked questions
  • Industry insights on important financial reporting topics
  • A Standards Tracker to help you stay current on recently issued FASB, ARSC, and ASB standards
  • Insight and guidance to help you avoid common financial reporting pitfalls
We welcome your feedback on the new Center.

A key element in the corporate governance process of any organization is its audit committee. The battle for financial statement integrity and reliability depends on balancing the pressures of multiple stakeholders, including management, regulators, investors and the public interest. We present the guidance and tools to make audit committee best practices actionable.
