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, will be providing 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 .
The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session. Participants will be able to submit questions using the online facilities only. Instructions on how to do so will be given at the beginning of the session.
Specifically, Paul Pacter will address 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?
For the convenience of our constituents in the different time zones we have scheduled two time slots for the Webcast:
- 10 September 2008 at 10 am (GMT + 1)
- 10 September 2008 at 3pm (GMT + 1)
