Six months ago, in March 2008, the Board started re-deliberating its exposure draft on an IFRS for Private Entities (formerly IFRS for SMEs).
The IASB’s Director of Standards for Private Entities, Paul Pacter, provided an update on the current state of re-deliberations and an overview on the outstanding issues in a live Web presentation on 10 September 2008.
In his presentation Paul was joined in the morning session by Tom Jones, Vice Chairman IASB and Chairman of the project’s Working Group and in the afternoon session by Mike Wells, Senior Manager Education.
The presentation was followed by a Q&A session. Paul addressed the following issues:
- Why have an IFRS for Private Entities?
- What has the IASB proposed?
- What are the key issues arising from comment letters and field tests?
- What is left to be done
- How will the IASC Foundation assist in implementation?
