Why you should attend

The IAASB is developing non-authoritative guidance to address key challenges arising in the performance of assurance engagements over EER performed using its assurance standard, ISAE 3000 (Revised).

To help shape the future of IAASB’s assurance over EER, the half-day discussions will cover:

  • progress in the development of the first phase of the draft guidance;
  • implications of the guidance for assurance engagements; and
  • assurance issues faced in your region.

Who should attend

The events are open to all. The IAASB wants to engage with those who prepare EER reports, assurance practitioners, regulators, standard-setters, investors and other users of EER reports. Accountants and non-accountants alike are encouraged to attend and participate to help shape the IAASB’s work in this area.

How to register

To express initial interest, please email IAASBmeetings@iaasb.org with your name, organization, country and the event you would like to attend. We will then notify you when registration opens. For updates, please visit our website and follow us at @IAASB_News and #EERassurance.

What is EER?

EER encapsulates many different forms of reporting, including, but not limited to, integrated reporting, sustainability reporting and non-financial reporting about environmental, social and governance matters. Such reports may be prepared under legislative or regulatory requirements and established frameworks, standards and guidance issued by international or national standard setters.

Further details can be found in a discussion paper, the related feedback statement, and the project proposal.
