The KPMG SOX 404 compliance Institute

The 404 Institute was established to provide an open forum for the exchange of ideas on SOX 404 compliance

404 Institute members have always played a vital role in determining our agenda. Five years after the adoption of Section 404 became mandatory; our members report that compliance activities are continuing to be integrated into the corporate environment. As a result, members previously focused entirely on compliance are taking on increasingly operational roles. Given these dynamics the Institute is expanding its focus to meet your evolving needs by continuing to offer guidance and thought leadership on the broader set of financial management issues that affect you.

To help address your needs, we will cover a range of topics in addition to section 404 compliance - including financial reporting, and risk and controls. This will enable us to continue providing you with an open forum where ideas can be exchanged and leading practices developed on issues that impact you most.

We invite you to explore our updated Web site to find the wider range of topics and events we're scheduling to help you address the broader scope of issues you face.
