EDGAR® Online to Present at Corporate Performance Management Conference on "The Risk-Management Curve"

ROCKVILLE, Md., Jan. 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- EDGAR® Online, Inc. (NASDAQ: EDGR), a premier provider of fundamental financial data, analytics and disclosure management services, announced today that Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer David Price will present, "The Risk-Management Curve: What Is the Best Approach to Staying Ahead?" at the Corporate Performance Management Conference on Monday, January 30 at 11:45 a.m. ET at Grand Hyatt New York.

The session will address the growing requirements among chief financial officers (CFOs) to have a more comprehensive understanding of the internal and external factors impacting their companies, particularly in the areas of compliance and enterprise risk. Price will focus on the increasing complexity of enterprise risk management (ERM) and compliance, how to better manage it, and the importance of being proactive—rather than reactive—in all aspects of compliance.

"Today, CFOs must stay ahead of the governance, risk and compliance (GRC) curve by navigating more complex disclosure requirements, while at the same time anticipating trends, in part through effective use of the emerging new data regarding their industries, competitors, supply chains, shareholders and boards of directors," said David Price, EDGAR Online chief financial officer and chief operating officer.  

Using his own experiences as a CFO, Price will scrutinize the challenges financial officers face when handling the growing burden of proper compliance and ERM, and he will examine the pros and cons of outsourcing disclosure reporting and the importance of better internal and external data analysis across the enterprise.

The CPM conference will take place in New York City, January 29 through 31. For more information on the conference, visit http://www3.cfo.com/cpm-t3-2012/agenda.
