IASB and EFRAG joint meeting about work plan


Default: Change to:


Das Treffen konzentrierte sich auf die wichtigsten Projekte, die das IASB im Jahr 2011 abschließen will. EFRAGs Empfehlungen zu Revenue Recognition, Leasing, Finanzinstrumenten, der Konsolidierung und den Versicherungsverträgen wurden diskutiert. Im Fokus stand die Notwendigkeit, hohe Qualitätsstandards zeitnah zu liefern.


The IASB and the EFRAG met on 12 November to review the IASB’s ongoing work.
Representatives of the IASB and the EFRAG emphasised their continued support for a single set of high quality global accounting standards, and noted the role that the European Union’s adoption of IFRSs has played in encouraging other jurisdictions to adopt international standards. They also highlighted the importance of broad engagement in the standard-setting process in pursuit of high quality standards that reflect input from all stakeholders.
 
Commenting on the meeting, Sir David Tweedie said:
"Europe has been a long-term supporter of global accounting standards, and EFRAG’s voice is an important one in the standard-setting process. This was a useful meeting, with insight from EFRAG informing the Board on a number of major projects."
 
Françoise Flores said:
"EFRAG is grateful for the constructive relationship it enjoys with the IASB. Our regular meetings with the IASB give both parties the opportunity to ensure that European constituents’ assessment of proposed changes to IFRSs are fully debated, before, during and after consultation stage, so as to bring confidence that final standards will best serve capital markets."
 
The next meeting of the IASB and EFRAG will take place in the first quarter of 2011.
