16 activities of the commissions CRUF CRUF Corporate User Forum is a network of senior investment professionals from leading sell and buy-side equity and bond market institutions formed in 2005. Members of CRUF provide critical commentary and advice on existing and forthcoming financial reporting and accounting standards under IFRS. Meetings are held regularly in London, New York, Frankfurt am Main and Sydney. In 2010, a new section of CRUF was established in Canada. Further CRUFs are currently being set up in France, Japan and South Korea. Among other objectives, CRUF aims to further reduce the complexity and size of financial reporting. The practice-based recommendations of the organisation's members target granularity of the standards developed and increased use of electronic reporting formats. CRUF in Germany concentrated primarily on the following in 2010: � IAS 18 Revenue Recognition � IAS 27 Consolidations � IAS 39 Financial Instruments � IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets � IAS 19 Accounting Treatment and Disclosure of Employee Benefits Equities_ CRUF Germany has authored a joint position paper for the CRUF network on the draft of IAS 37. Dialogue with the IASB was expanded, so that IASB staff, project managers and directors were present via closed circuit television at most CRUF meetings. Also in 2010, CRUF Germany began active exchanges with organisations like EBF (European Banking Federation), Business Europe and FSB (Financial Stability Board). The CRUF website was relaunched in 2010, to make its information more easily accessible to anyone interested (www.cruf.com).
activities of the commissions Expert Group Banks The focus of this Expert Group is on 'Business models for banks'. Its aim is to contribute to an improved understanding of banking business and development of associated business models. The objective is to raise awareness of the different business models of banks beyond the domain of banking and accounting specialists. This project is meant to culminate in 2011 with a symposium hosting presenters from the banking industry and academics, as well as management consulting and auditing professionals. The event will be aimed at equity and bond investors, representatives from the banking industry and the financial press. Expert Group Real Estate Equities_ The fifth DVFA Real Estate Conference was held on 22 and 23 February. The session for corporates, investors, financial analysts and experts from the real estate industry focussed on the topic: ‘ESG as an investment criteria for institutional investors - is sustainability paying off?’. This year’s Conference attracted more than 120 real estate experts to the DVFA Center in Frankfurt. The attractiveness of real estate investment seems to be directly related to sustainability aspects and there was a consensus among participants: Transparent reporting and fair valuations are two main pillars of strategically consistent investment - though this message does not seem to have been received by all market participants. The focus of the work of the Expert Group led by Prof. Dr. Heinz Rehkugler was on continuation of the transparency index, the third survey, fair valuation and the discussion surrounding G-REITs. 17
