2013年5月·中国苏州
2013年5月23日,第4届XBRL亚洲圆桌论坛在苏州举行。与会者讨论了加强本地区XBRL合作及建立亚洲XBRL地区组织(暂定名)的可行性。此建议得到了澳大利亚、中国、印度、日本、韩国和新加坡XBRL地区组织的一致支持。
与会代表认识到:
一、本地区作为推动全球经济增长的重要力量,已经并将继续在应对国际金融危机、恢复全球经济增长过程中发挥重要作用。各方应当本着公众利益,在XBRL应用方面协调立场、加强合作,为增强本地区资本市场和金融市场透明度、方便企业对外报告贡献力量。
二、近年来,本地区不少国家和地区已应用了XBRL,还有一些国家和地区正准备采用。在信息技术日益全球化背景下,本地区XBRL组织已经并将继续加强联系,同时需要考虑进一步建立一种更为系统性、有组织的机制,以便交流XBRL应用中遇到的问题,分享经验,并为XBRL国际组织维护一套高质量的技术规范做出贡献。
三、本地区人口众多,资源丰富,发达市场与新兴市场经济并存。协调好本地区参与XBRL国际组织的活动,将有助于XBRL国际组织真正认识到本地区对技术和规范的需求的多样性,并提升本地区在全球信息技术标准制定组织中的领导力。
在此基础上,与会代表讨论了加强本地区XBRL合作及建立本地区XBRL组织的相关问题。为推动本地区采用XBRL,分享本地区各国家或地区应用XBRL的经验,提高本地区企业报告的透明度,协调本地区各国家组织参与XBRL国际组织(XII)标准制定的立场,并支持XBRL国际组织制定高质量技术规范的努力,代表们一致认为应进一步就此进行磋商,以建立一种更为坚实的机制(例如XBRL亚洲组织)。
XBRL国际组织代表迈克·威利斯、国际会计准则理事会(IASB)XBRL活动总监奥利维尔·瑟维斯出席了本次会议,并支持建立XBRL亚洲组织的构想。
XBRL Asian (Asian-Oceanian) Roundtable
Joint STATEMENT
Suzhou, China·May 2013
On May 23, 2013, the 4th XBRL Asia Roundtable was held in Suzhou during which cooperation and coordination of XBRL in the region was discussed and the establishment of an organization, XBRL Asia (tentatively named), was proposed. The proposal was jointly supported by XBRL Australia, China, India, Japan, Korea and Singapore,
The participants have recognized that:
1. The region (Asian-Oceania region), as an important engine for global economic growth, has played and will continue to play an important role in response to the international financial crisis and in restoring the global economy. XBRL jurisdictions in the region shall, in the public interest, coordinate their positions and strengthen cooperation with constituents to contribute to the capital and financial markets transparency as well as facilitate business reporting in the region.
2. In recent years, many jurisdictions in the region have adopted or applied the Extensible Business Reporting Language and many others are also preparing to introduce XBRL. In the context of increasingly globalized information technology, XBRL jurisdictions in the region have continued and will continue to cement relationships. It is appropriate for XBRL jurisdictions in the region to consider establishing a mechanism more systematic and institutional to discuss problems, share experiences in applying XBRL and make a contribution to a set of high quality global XBRL specifications issued and maintained by XBRL International (XII).
3. The region features a large population, abundant resources, as well as co-existing developed and emerging economies. A regional coordination in participations in XII’s specifications development will help the XII to realize the various kinds of requests relating to technical and specification matters in the region and enhance the XII’s leadership as a global IT standard development organization.
In view of this, participants discussed issues related to enhance cooperation and coordination of XBRL in the region and the possible establishment of XBRL Asia (tentatively named). Participants agreed that further dialogue and negotiations are needed in establishing a more robust mechanism, such as XBRL Asia, to promote the application of XBRL in the region, share XBRL application experiences among jurisdictions and members of the region, facilitate improved transparency in business reporting, coordinate positions of jurisdictions and members in the region in participations in XII’s specification development and support XII’s effort to establish a set of high quality global XBRL specifications.
Mr. Mike Willis, the representative of XII, acknowledged and Mr. Olivier Servais, director of XBRL activities of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), applauded the proposal of establishing XBRL Asia.
