EFRAG outreach meetings on the IASB's Financial Statement Presentation project
09 Sep 2010
On 1 July 2010, the IASB released on its website a staff draft of the exposure draft Financial Statement Presentation in order to solicit input and views from constituents, prior to publication of a final ED.
To assist the IASB in its efforts to gather views from European constituents, as well as to inform itself of whether, and to what extent, preliminary views of the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) are representative of European views, EFRAG has decided to organise outreach events throughout Europe from September to November 2010, in partnership with European National Standard Setters. To avoid any duplication of effort, EFRAG has decided to invite the IASB to participate in these events. The objective of these events is to
- present the IASB's tentative decisions to constituents;
- present EFRAG's tentative views, highlighting areas of support and focusing on areas of concern;
- seek views from constituents in Europe on the proposals; and
- seek views from constituents in Europe on possible improvements to those proposals.
Tentative locations and dates are, as follows:
- Amsterdam: Tuesday 26 October 2010
- Helsinki: Monday 15 November 2010
- Warsaw: Friday 26 November 2010
- Stockholm: Monday 22 November 2010
- Oslo: Friday 19 November 2010
- Madrid: Tuesday 23 November 2010
- Italy: timing and location to be confirmed
- UK: timing and location to be confirmed
