Third ASCG Preparer Forum on Electronic Financial Reporting according to ESEF

On 5 October 2020, the third ASCG’s preparer forum on electronic financial reporting according to ESEF was held as a video and telephone conference.

Around 60 representatives from ASCG’s members (companies, audit firms and associations) discussed, among other things, the following topics:

• Legislative implementation of ESEF in Germany – an overview and update
• Implications for the statutory audit: a first analysis
• Q&A session
• Technology and implementation of the ESEF

The preparer forum exclusively provides our members with insights into current developments and serves as a platform to discuss issues related to the implementation of electronic financial reporting according to ESEF. We would like to thank our members for their participation and look forward for the fourth meeting of the preparer forum on electronic financial reporting according to ESEF, which is expected to take place as a video and telephone conference on 7 December 2020.
