Financial Data Quality Management and Its Impact on Reporting

Less than 10% of financial executives rate their companies as excellent at financial data collection and reporting. Companies have undertaken significant financial reporting transformation efforts to satisfy the investment community and the mandates of Sarbanes-Oxley, but as of yet have little to show for their efforts. Recently, the SEC indicated that nearly 55% of recent restatements were due to problems with records. Companies didn't have the correct data, and as a result their accounting did not meet the necessary standards.

Is your company facing similar risk? If so, learn from leading experts on Financial Data Quality Management in this important webcast. In addition to providing best practices, the webcast will present a very in-depth case study.

Learn how Belden, a world-class manufacturer of signal transmission products listed on the NYSE, has applied Financial Data Quality Management to the close process and reduced the time it takes to collect data, close the books and report financial information by 40%. In addition, see how Belden applies Financial Data Quality Management to easily integrate acquisitions to meet their stringent consolidation and close requirements.
