Points of attendance
From the perspective of professionals who handle many such cases, the responses that companies should take when misstatements occur in their securities reports and other disclosure documents, as well as the practical issues and points to keep in mind, are fairly standardized.
However, for those in charge of legal affairs and finance and accounting who must deal with such matters in their companies, this is an event that is experienced only rarely. Moreover, while they must take the lead in responding to such incidents when they do occur, they often have a difficult time dealing with them because they are far removed from their normal duties.
In addition, while false statements have been focused on fraudulent financial statements (illegal accounting), the regulatory authorities' eyes on non-financial information are becoming stricter due to the effects of system revisions and other factors. Along with this, new points to keep in mind have arisen.
In this seminar, we will explain the standard measures that companies should take in the event of false statements, keeping in mind these recent trends (In addition to listed companies, the contents will also be useful for non-listed companies that are required to have their financial statements audited by accountants, which is a requirement for large companies under the Companies Act).
Only members can watch it.
Please refrain from registering at a law firm, in the same industry as our company, or with a free email address.
