02 Mar 2022
During the meeting of the Trustees of the IFRS Foundation currently taking place in Frankfurt, Germany, the Trustees have signed memoranda of understanding with German public and private sector institutions to establish the presence of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) in Frankfurt.
The memoranda of understanding formalise the partnerships and funding arrangements required to establish the ISSB in Frankfurt. While the ISSB will have a global, multi-location presence, the Frankfurt office will provide the seat of the Board and the office of the ISSB Chair. The office will provide key support functions for the ISSB, including the hosting of board meetings, and will act as a hub for the Europe, Middle East and Africa region.
