This roundtable, presented by KPMG, gave attendees the perspective of audit committee members and other directors, and considered the audit committee’s role in overseeing key “downturn-related risks,” including liquidity, access to capital, and the increased risk of earnings management during a period of economic pessimism. Also presented was how to effectively focus an oversight.
