XBRL Investor Forum 2019: Driving Actionable Analytics

Data standards are rapidly being recognized as the critical driver in new markets and new types of tools. Blockchain and artificial intelligence applications need clean, consistent, automated data to enable deployment. And municipal investors and analysts are waking to the realization that they can, and should, have granular, actionable financials from state and local governments.

This half-day forum provides practical information about how data standards are disrupting the information ecosystem, how you can leverage it, and where it’s headed.

XBRL’s Investor Forum will feature FASB Chair Russel G. Golden as Keynote Speaker, representatives from Morgan Stanley, CFA Institute, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and more. GBBC’s CEO Sandra Ro will present on “Blockchian, Smart Contracts & XBRL”

This event is hosted by Baruch College’s Zicklin School of Business in the Newman Conference Center – 55 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY. The program was developed by XBRL US, and is held in sponsorship with CFA Institute and CFA Society New York. The event is free to attend but registration is required.
