Starting in June 2009, many foreign SEC-filers using US-GAAP will have to provide their financial reports in XBRL-format. For filers reporting in IFRS, that deadline is 2011, but even then, it is worth while to be prepared.
XBRL Switzerland offers a high level, interactive seminar to give participants a clear understanding of what is required by the new rules and how to comply with the upcoming requirements.
The seminar wild be held at Widder Hotel.
The tentative agenda is as follows:
09:45 Welcome reception
10:00 Opening statements
10:15 Keynote address: Filing using an IFRS taxnomoy - ready for prime time (Olivier Servais, IASB, Director of XBRL Activities)
