ASU Annual Public Finance Conference
Understanding options and disclosure requirements for local governments
Arizona State University's School of Public Affairs and The Center for Urban Innovation present its third Annual Public Finance Conference. This national conference
brings together practitioners and public officials from across the United States to examine the core principles of municipal finance focusing on current priorities,
perspectives, deal structures and best practices that attendees can take back to their home communities for implementation. Real solutions for real challenges.
Guest speakers and work sessions will address a range of municipal finance issues confronting today's finance officers, managers, and elected officials.
Some of this year's topics will include:
- A changing regulatory environment
Are you prepared for the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosure requirements for municipal securities?
- Financing new technologies
Utilizing an array of financing tools to make your city a smart city
- Disclosure requirements and liability
Presentation by ratings agencies on their respective expectation from an issuer when it comes to frequency and content of disclosure
- Rating agency review
What they are looking for and why?
- How am I going to pay for THAT?
With aging infrastructure, what are the non-traditional borrowing options local governments might consider?
- Issuer's experience, an investor's view
Presentations by bond purchasers and what they expect from issuers given the current market climate
New this year: An Issuer's Forum - Understanding the Choices and Requirements in Future Financings
