Overview:

"Is it possible an accounting rule that requires banks and other financial companies to write down the value of certain investments to "fair value" is causing financial institutions to fold?"

This was the issue presented and discussed in a Forbes.com article written on April 21, 2009 by Audit Principal, Patrick F. Gannon of Kaufman, Rossin & Co. (Click Here to Read). His question serves as this evening's topic of discussion.

Please join us as our distinguished panel of experts weigh in on whether an accounting rule caused havoc in the financial markets or did it go beyond to what the SEC's 2008 findings stated; that bank failures in 2008 were a product of the decisions made in selecting a bank's chosen portfolio of assets, the latitude given in assessing the value of some of those assets, credit losses and deterioration of lender and consumer confidence. Points will further cover:

The Mis-Pricing of Risk
Assessing the Market Impact of Past and Current Interpretations of Mark to Market
Goodwill Impairment
The Impact of the Accounting Rule on Nevada's Economy and Specifically the Value of Local Banks and Consolidation of the Local banking Industry.
