Webinar – Ethics: A Focus on the 7 Threats

McKonly & Asbury’s September webinar entitled, “Ethics: A Focus on the 7 Threats” will take place on Thursday, September 26, 2019. The webinar will be hosted by Michael Hoffner, Partner and Leader of McKonly & Asbury’s Systems and Organization Controls (SOC) practice and Co-Director of the Assurance practice, and Janice Snyder, Partner and Co-Director of the Assurance practice.

This ethics webinar will focus on the 7 threats that could compromise a CPA’s compliance with the AICPA code of professional conduct. Many threats fall into one or more of the following seven broad categories: adverse interest, advocacy, familiarity, management participation, self-interest, self-review, and undue influence.

During this webinar, attendees will:

• Understand the 7 threats to compliance with the code of professional conduct.
• Be provided examples of each of the 7 threats: adverse interest, advocacy, familiarity, management participation, self-interest, self-review, and undue influence.
• Evaluate the 3 broad categories of safeguards that may be put in place to reduce the risk of non-compliance triggered by the 7 threats.
