Committee on Corporate Reporting (CCR)
The CCR focuses on issues relating to financial accounting, auditing and corporate reporting. It puts members on the inside track concerning the activities of the Accounting Standards Board (AcSB) and the Emerging Issues Committee of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA), and it comments and intervenes on behalf of FEI Canada on current and proposed CICA initiatives. Through the CICA, the Committee also makes its views known to the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Senior CICA staff members frequently participate at CCR meetings. The CCR also maintains a close relationship with the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) on issues relating to corporate reporting. As with the CICA, Senior OSC staff members frequently participate at CCR meetings. FEI Canada's CCR also keeps abreast of notices from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) that would affect Canadian inter-listed companies.

Issues and Policy Advisory Committee (IPAC)
The Issues and Policy Advisory Committee was established to develop FEI Canada public positions, provide guidance and expert opinion on emerging issues relevant to FEI Canada members, and act as advisors on issues of current importance to industry groups, government, associations, and other constituents who will benefit from the impartial council of the Committee.
The Committee has a broad agenda and has developed a number of Task Forces to address issues of current importance to CFOs across the country. These include issues related to: corporate governance; the structure of capital markets; internal control certification; pensions; taxation; private company issues; and public sector accountability.
