Managing lease agreements for commercial real estate remains dynamic and complex, presenting various compliance challenges with ever-changing lease accounting standards (ASC 842, GASB 87, and IFRS 16). To stay on top of these changes, many organizations are now considering the use of dedicated technologies for more enhanced and centralized lease management processes.

Speakers will also offer effective strategies to help businesses navigate this evolving regulatory paradigm.

  • Lease Management: Emerging Opportunities and Challenges
  • Leveraging Technology for Lease Management
  • Best Strategies
  • What’s Ahead?

Learning Objectives:

  • Determine emerging trends in the commercial real estate market including new lease accounting standards and modern lease administration.

Agenda:

SEGMENT 1: 

Marc BeteshExecutive Chairman & Founder

Visual Lease

and

Joe FitzgeraldSVP, Lease Market Strategy

Visual Lease

  • Most people are stunned to find out that after headcount-related expenses, leases (real estate, fleet, equipment, land and more) are typically the second largest expense for organizations.
  • To further complicate matters, leases are very dynamic agreements; they are often subject to changes that need to be documented, tracked and reported over time to ensure proper, ongoing compliance with the lease accounting standards (ASC 842, GASB 87 and IFRS 16).
  • With leases now being represented on the balance sheet, these agreements are a priority to the Office of Finance – this critical shift has provided businesses with an opportunity to get a handle on their leases.
  • If businesses do not implement proper lease controls, they open themselves up to a range of risks. In fact, an overwhelming four out of five tenants experienced negative impacts to their business due to inadequate internal controls including the inability to respond to changing circumstances due to the pandemic, missing an option to extend a deadline, miscalculating lease costs, the inability to update an unwanted or unfavorable term, missing a reimbursement or incentive, overpaying rent or expenses and incurring the landlord’s responsibilities.
  • While adopting dedicated technology might seem like extra work and an added expense, the truth is it's much more efficient and less costly in the long run.
