The following topics were on the agenda:

  • Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Equity / Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity
  • IBOR reform
  • Goodwill and Impairment / Identifiable Intangible Assets and Subsequent Accounting for Goodwill
  • Disclosure Initiative / Disclosure Framework
