Continuing the conversation - Directors speak

Corporate Governance Series 02/02/2012 by Center for Board Governance

PwC's new publication series is intended to deliver timely content on current issues facing directors of public companies. The source for this series will be PwC events, webcasts or other programs that feature governance topics.

The second edition in the series focuses on the concerns of director participants at the peer exchanges hosted by PwC in Arizona, New York, and Florida.

The SEC enforcement agenda and whistleblower bounty program, CEO succession, executive compensation, and IT risk were among the issues on audit committee members' minds. Moderated by US Assurance Leader Tim Ryan, audit committee members discussed how their boards and committees deal with these issues. Some of the stories shared during the exchanges are described in the publication. There is also a link to related PwC thought leadership about the whistleblower rules.
