New York, NY, September 01, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The Knowledge Congress, the leading producer of regulatory focused webinars, announced today that it has scheduled a live webinar on Statement 157 Fair Value Accounting and Its Critical Impact on Your Business. This two-hour event is scheduled on Tuesday, January 20th, 2009, at 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM (EST – New York).

Introduced in September 2006, FAS No. 157 helped to more clearly define measuring fair value in GAAP and has also expanded fair value measurement disclosures. Since then, adoption in implementation of Statement No. 157 continues to be a significant accounting issue for most publicly traded companies and their respective lenders and legal counsel.

The Knowledge Congress is assembling a panel of distinguished professionals and key regulators to help understand Statement No. 157 and its impact on your firm and the broader market. The speakers will present their expert opinions in a two-hour Live Webinar.

Speakers/Faculty Panel:

Kenneth Lamar, Senior Vice President, Statistic Function, Federal Reserve Bank of New York

Sergey Volkov, CPA, CFA, Director, Structured Finance Group, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP

Kenneth J. Pantoga, CFA, Director, Leader, New York Valuation Practice, WTAS LLC

Daniel Kahn, National Leader, Complex Securities Valuation Group, Valuation & Business Modeling, Ernst & Young LLP
