Joint FRC/IASB Webinar: Management Commentary
News types: Consultation Announcement, Publications
Published: 1 October 2021
Management Commentary or the Strategic Report in the UK is an important source of information for investors and creditors. Despite developments in narrative reporting in recent years, investors still report a number of significant shortcomings in reporting practices.
The FRC will be hosting a joint outreach event with the IASB to discuss the IASB's proposals for a comprehensive, objectives-based framework for management commentary to better meet global capital market needs and to facilitate high-quality, globally consistent narrative reporting. The exposure draft of the proposed new framework is open for comment until 23 November 2021.
When: Thursday 14 October 2021, 4pm - 5pm
Note a Teams Live link will be sent to registered attendees in advance.
The IASB will be represented by Board member Nick Anderson and Technical Staff members Yulia Feygina and Matt Chapman.
Mark Babington and Deepa Raval from the FRC will provide an overview of the UK context for wider corporate reporting including the Strategic Report.
