ISS will hold a webcast, Analyzing Accounting and Legal Risk for Institutional Investors, on Tuesday, August 21, 2007 at 11:00am EDT.

In the current volatile market environment, it’s critical that investors manage today's risks before they become tomorrow's crises. CFRA (Center for Financial Research and Analysis), a global forensic accounting boutique, has a 13-year track record of uncovering companies and sectors facing deteriorating financial performance and increased risk – long before the market recognizes these problems.

Richard Leggett, head of RiskMetrics Group's ISS Governance Services unit, Marc Siegel, head of accounting and legal research at CFRA, and their colleague Garvis Toler will discuss how institutional investors can use forensic accounting and legal risk assessment as part of their investment process.
