The FASB decided to amend FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require an entity to provide disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial information.
The Board affirmed its previous decision that the FSP would apply to all financial instruments within the scope of Statement 107. The Board also affirmed its previous decision to require entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments, in both interim financial statements as well as annual financial statements.
The Board decided that only public entities would be required to provide the fair value disclosures in interim financial information.
The Board decided that the FSP would be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.
