1:15pm-2:15pm ET
Corporate Transparency Act
Stuart A. Simon, Esq., CPA, Of Counsel, Buchalter
For more than two decades, the U.S. Government has documented the use of legal entities by criminal actors to purchase real estate, conduct wire transfers, burnish the appearance of legitimacy when dealing with counterparties (including financial institutions), and control legitimate businesses for ultimately illicit ends, and has published extensively on this topic to raise awareness.

Beginning on January 1, 2024, many companies in the U.S. will have to report information about their beneficial owners, i.e., the individuals who ultimately own or control the company, to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network FinCEN). The session will address what needs to be reported and when and review the impact of the new rules.

The More Things Change, The More They Stay the Same: Addressing the CPA Pipeline Crisis
Rick Reisig, CPA, Principal, Pinion; Chairman of the Board, National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA)
Mr. Reisig will address the CPA pipeline crisis, protecting CPA licensure mobility, and the 150 hour 5th year requirements for CPAs. Learn how becoming a CPA opens the door to later becoming a dual-certified attorney-CPA.
Mr. Reisig’s advocacy reveals that he is a big supporter of not cutting back quality education in favor of easing the burden of the pipeline crisis. The organization which he chairs, NASBA, is currently working very hard as partners to promote concepts to address the challenge.
