Final Agenda and the Invitation to GTC XBRL Work Shop – Enabling Trust in Financial Reporting

As member of XBRL Europe, the Global Trust Center is pleased to invite all members of XBRL International and stakeholders in the Financial Services Sector to attend a workshop in Malmö on 20thApril 2009  09.30 – 16.30, which addresses the issues of traceability and trust to Interactive Data using XBRL.

 

We are delighted to announce that Liv Watson, Vice Chair of XBRL International, has agreed to present a part of the workshop and provide us with her insightful and actual views on the global update on legislated drivers of XBRL. This will include XBRL US and the update of the testimony to the Domestic Policy Subcommittee of the Oversight and Government Reform Committee “Reports technology standard is real, ready and relevant in current financial crisis”.

 

We are also pleased to note the strong interest for ”Enabling Trust in Financial Reporting”. During the last few weeks we have noted several activities around the financial reporting taken place within the EU as well as in the US.  One interesting whitepaper regarding XBRL “Using Standards for Transparency” by Mark Bolgiano, President and CEO of XBRL US, has been submitted to the US Treasury Department and has been provided for you.

 

In the following attachments, you will find the final Agenda for this one-day workshop and travel information including flights into Copenhagen Airport early in the morning and out in the same evening.
