Highlights from CAQ Symposium Breakout Discussions 2013

At the CAQ Symposium, research academics and senior practice leaders joined together in small group discussions to further explore one of the four major topic areas addressed by the morning’s panel on audit committee effectiveness. The questions posed to the breakout group members were designed to drive a dialogue about the factors that are key to a given audit committee role, the areas of potential improvement, and potential impediments to those improvements. The discussions also touched upon academic research on audit committee-related issues. Two separate breakout groups addressed each topic area.
