Making Sense of GASB 75
Governmental entities are required to meet stringent financial reporting standards—especially when it comes to postemployment benefits other than pensions (OPEB). GASB Statement No. 75 outlines the framework for recognizing and disclosing these liabilities, aiming to enhance transparency, accountability, and decision-making for stakeholders. At TrueComp, we understand how complex these reporting requirements can be. That’s why Roger Burton and Scott Lanham lead our efforts in preparing accurate, timely GASB 75 actuarial reports for our clients. Their work helps government employers confidently navigate OPEB compliance, whether the plan is administered through a qualifying trust or another arrangement.
With our tailored actuarial solutions, clients receive clear valuations and insights that not only meet compliance standards, but also simplify the decision-making process. From projecting benefit payments to calculating liabilities, our team ensures you have everything you need to fulfill your reporting obligations with confidence.
