Autumn 2008 CFO Forum Meeting

Wednesday, November 5, 2008, 7:30-9:30 a.m.
"Examining the Credit Crisis "

The past few months have reminded us that the markets can change very quickly and financing sources can dry-up, potentially leaving a company in a liquidity crunch. A CFO needs to have his or her company positioned to weather such a market storm even when things look good—as they did just four months ago.

Helping us explore these issues are:

* Hal Strong , Vice Chairman and Head of Strategic Initiatives at Russell Investments

* Jonathan Karpoff, Metcalfe Endowed Professor of Finance, Foster School of Business at the University of Washington

* Bob George, CFO, Esterline Technologies

* Ellen Boyer, CFO, Kibble & Prentice
