Directions to Future Students
For purposes of assessing the corporation's use of derivative securities, in addition to the standard accounting statements -- the balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement -- examination of the financial statements also includes the management's risk management statement, which is included in the management discussion and analysis section of the annual report. Also of importance are the notes to the final statements detailing the firm's use of specific derivative securities. Other sections of the annual report might also be examined to determine the organizational struture which the firm uses to handle risk management -- e.g., is the risk management decision process centered on a subcommittee of the board?
