MORRISTOWN, N.J., April 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Financial Executives International (FEI), the association of choice for CFOs and other senior-level finance executives, today announced the formation of the FEI Private Company Roundtable. Formally unveiled at the 2010 FEI Leadership Summit being held in Las Vegas, Nevada, the Private Company Roundtable will establish a network of executives from across the United States to discuss the most pressing issues relevant to private companies, and assure these are being addressed at the national level.
The inaugural Roundtable meeting will be held on June 2, 2010. Roundtable teleconferences will be held quarterly, affording members an opportunity to hear from high-level government and technical speakers.
The Roundtable was launched to provide executives with educational and advocacy programs that directly connect them to exclusive legislative content and face-to-face dialogue with key decision-makers in Washington, D.C. Executives participating in the Roundtable have the opportunity to participate in discussions on finance policy issues and critical-interest topics with Congressional members, Administration officials, and senior staffers. The Roundtable will also assist FEI in the formulation of policy positions and strategic education and advocacy efforts by providing feedback on business operations and the potential business impact of policies.
"Private companies make up a significant portion of FEI's membership, and we remain committed to addressing and advocating the specific needs of all financial executives, especially during this critical time," said Marie Hollein, President and CEO, Financial Executives International. "Through our Private Company committees, we discovered there is a strong need for a forum of this nature that will allow private companies an opportunity to speak freely with their peers and share their concerns with high-ranking officials and decision makers on the Hill. We are pleased to launch this Roundtable and encourage all private companies to take part."
