The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced the agenda and panelists for next week’s inaugural public roundtable of the Financial Reporting Series.
The November 8 roundtable entitled “Measurement Uncertainty in Financial Reporting” – announced last month – will feature three panels discussing the extent to which financial reporting should include measurement uncertainties, and the information that investors find important to understanding and assessing those uncertainties. The SEC staff has previously prepared a briefing paper highlighting the issues to be considered at the roundtable discussion.
The roundtable will begin at 10 a.m. in the multi-purpose room at the SEC’s Washington D.C. headquarters with public seating on a first-come, first-served basis. The event also will be viewable by live webcast on the SEC website, and will be archived for later viewing.
Members of the public who wish to provide their views on the matters to be considered at the roundtable discussion may submit comments through one of the following methods:

Use the SEC’s Internet comment form or send an e-mail to rule-comments@sec.gov and include File Number 4-640 on the subject line.
