CGBP to Hold Seminar on How to Really Read Financial Statements

As a business decision-maker, it is important to know how to read financial statements and interpret the numbers correctly in order to make right decisions for your business. This is also important to make sense of financial ratios and detect if there are inconsistencies in financial reports.  Because of the need for board directors and business decision makers to know this, the Center for Global Best Practices will conduct  a seminar called “How to Really Read Financial Statements” on June 23 & 24, 2011 at The Peninsula Manila, Makati City.

This two-day seminar will teach you all that including how to spot important issues and ask intelligent questions in management and board meetings. This user-friendly format will teach you to understand not only balance sheets, income and cash flow statements, but also how to interpret those footnotes and disclosures on audit reports. You will learn how to make sense of those financial ratios and analysis to know if you have a healthy business and find out what is right, what is wrong, and fishy in the financial report. 

Whether you are in marketing, HR, or operations, or the board director, owner or stakeholder, it’s your business to know the language of business! 

To speak in this seminar are two top-notch auditors, namely Mary Jane O. Rosales, CPA, CIA and Juan Carlos B. Robles, CPA, CIA, CFE, CISA. Ms. Rosales is a former president of The Institute of Internal Auditors in the Philippines. She has a mastery of finance, having spent most of her career handling controllership & risk management functions in Petron Corporation.

He has over 20 years of combined experience in public accounting, government auditing, internal audit, forensic audit, risk management and business consulting, and a CPA both in the U.S. and in the Philippines.
