Top 20 things to do before 2010
18 Nov 2009
Deloitte Canada has developed a checklist comprising 20 key things – from the tactical to the strategic – that publicly accountable enterprises (PAEs) must focus on this year to keep their IFRS conversion on track for 2011. This checklist is designed to help a company complete its preparation before 2010 for a seamless conversion.
It is also intended to help companies:
- Save money in the long run by investing the time and resources now, rather than completing the conversion on a rush basis with limiting options
- Prioritise actions to be included in year-end progress reports required in management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) for public companies in Q4 2009
- Prevent or minimise known difficulties that are commonly encountered in practice by Canadian entities
- Motivate immediate action by emphasising that certain tasks cannot wait until 2011
