ASC 815 (FAS133) -- Documentation Requirements - One-Hour Webinar
Registration:
Under ASC 815, documentation requirements are a critical link in the quest for hedge accounting treatment. In fact, under ASC 815, documentation determines accounting and remains a regular source of commentary from SEC and Audit firms. Documentation is often the reason companies lose hedge accounting treatment, be it because of the lack of documentation, the use of incorrect assumptions or simply having inadequate documentation
During this webinar, we will discuss the recommended documentation levels, from Board-approved policy to bridge and strategy documents. We will also delve deeper into the specific hedge inception documentation requirements, current issues around specific hedge identification and language around prospective and retrospective effectiveness testing, as well as how to correct deficiencies in documentation. We will focus not only on the requirements as laid out in the accounting guidance, but also on numerous best practices we have identified to smooth the way for the auditors.
