“ Through our international membership network, DVFA, beyond a doubt a German organisation, offers the necessary global reach that is so crucial for professionals in the capital markets.
the board Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Members, Report of the Board_ The year 2010 was clearly shaped by events to mark the DVFA anniversary. With a festive affair in October, we hosted nearly 400 guests to celebrate the first half century of the Society. The commemorative publication released for the same occasion covers numerous facets, with more than 40 articles written by industry experts, reflecting the broad range of activities pursued by DVFA and its members. The spectrum extends from answers to new challenges in asset management, financial analysis, accounting and the fixed income segment, to issues of corporate governance, financial communication, ethics and regulation, and even encompasses economic paradigms for the future. The volume clearly demonstrates that, since the very beginning, the work of DVFA has revolved around the fascinating point at which capital market theory meets practice. All members were provided with a copy of the publication. Our Commissions and Expert Groups also look back on a successful year in 2010. In the Equities division, the Small Cap Expert Group and Commission Life Science were very active: The small cap experts are working intensively on reporting standards for small and midcaps, while the life science group released the well-received publication ‘Life Science in the Capital Market – Biosimilars’. The conference calendar was full last year, with events addressing a wide array of topics before large crowds of participants. I must also mention the publication ‘KPIs for ESG’, which – carrying the endorsement of EFFAS – has been recognised by DG Enterprises and the EU Commission as a European Sustainability Standard. As a rapid reaction to the growing presence of small and medium-sized enterprises in the market for fixed income securities, the Expert Group Bond Communication has drafted a list of communication guidelines for issuers of corporate bonds. These ‘Minimum Standards for Bond Communication’ have been adopted by Deutsche Börse, which uses them as guidelines for new issues after opening a new Entry Standard for bonds at the end of January 2011. The Finance Academy was enlarged in 2010 to include the new postgraduate programme CRM Certified Risk Manager, which is being offered in partnership with Frankfurter Institut für Risikomanagement und Regulierung (FIRM). The financial management programme Certified Financial Manager has received accreditation from the European Financial Planner Association (EFPA), which set up EFPA Deutschland e.V. at the end of October to represent it in Germany. DVFA is a founding member of the organisation, and Dr. Peter König serves as Deputy Chairman. 05
