ABI’s committees focus on specific areas of insolvency and provide committee members with a platform to share knowledge and ideas. Each committee publishes quarterly newsletters with articles authored by committee members, and hosts periodic webinars that showcase committee members and their practices. The committees also coordinate educational sessions for the annual ABI Winter Leadership Conference and Annual Spring Meeting. Each committee is led by a leadership team appointed by ABI.

ABI recently selected members Dawn Cica (Carlyon Cica Chtd.) and Ken Mann (SC&H Capital) to resurrect the FAIB Committee after it had been on hiatus for several years. The committee focuses on insolvency-related issues for financial advisors and investment bankers.

An operating model can be defined as a detailed set of projected financial statements developed with the intent to map out what future execution scenarios look like in terms of achieving a company’s overall strategic objectives. It is a living, breathing tool that integrates all aspects of a company’s operations into a cohesive strategic execution plan. This should not be misconstrued as a “financial model,” the distinction being that a financial model is a reporting tool that often only summarizes what has occurred in the past and forecasts the future based on historical trends.
