International Financial <strong>Report</strong>ing Standards for SMEs as<br />

issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and<br />

Nothing has come to the attention of management to indicate<br />

that the Chamber will not remain a going concern for the<br />

next twelve (12) months from the reporting date, or up to<br />

the date the accompanying financial statements have been<br />

authorized for issue, if later. Management affirms that it has<br />
