Remarks Before The 2012 American Accounting Association Annual Meeting - Policy Choices Informed By Root Cause Analysis And The Audit Performance Feedback Loop – Investors Are Counting On All Of Us, By Brian T. Croteau, Deputy Chief Accountant, Office Of The Chief Accountant, U.S. Securities And Exchange Commission
Introduction
Good afternoon. Thank you Steve [Glover] for that very kind introduction and thank you to the Auditing Section of the American Accounting Association for inviting me to be here today. While many of us in Washington are heading to the Maryland and Delaware shores this time of year, I’m so glad to see so many of you from around the country assembled here, in our nation’s capital, to collaborate and share your research and thoughts on important accounting and auditing topics. I’ve had the opportunity to take part in many academic conferences, symposiums, and other meetings over the years, and I always look forward to them. I have learned that the academic community is not - nor should you be - shy about being clear and direct when sharing your views with colleagues, auditors, regulators, and others. I find it extraordinarily valuable to hear about the research and other thinking that you and your students are doing and also what you think about the work that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and SEC are doing. I’m particularly pleased to see so many familiar faces here today and glad that many of you stay in touch and provide very helpful updates about your work throughout the year. Before I go any further, I must remind you that my remarks today are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Commission, the Commissioners, or other members of the staff.
