A&M Global Transaction Advisory Group Managing Director Bob Ruckh was recognized by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) for his appointment to its Small Business Advisory Committee (SBAC), in a recent press release.
"The SBAC serves as a standing resource for the FASB. Its role is to provide focused input and feedback from a small public company perspective, consider whether there are differences in perspectives for small public versus private companies, and assist the FASB and its staff on matters for which the FASB may seek guidance." Richard R. Jones, Chair, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).
“Bob is one of the world’s leading transaction executives, full stop – and his 40+ years of PE experience will bring a valuable perspective to FASB’s Small Business Advisory Committee. His deep knowledge is paired with unique guidance, and he will bring immediate impact to the committee. Congratulations to Bob, and applause to the FASB, on this very deserved appointment.” Paul Aversano, Managing Director, Global Practice Leader for Global Transaction Advisory Group.
