Working under the operational CESR group charged with accounting issues, CESR-Fin, EECS is a forum in which all EU National Enforcers of financial information, whether CESR members or not, meet to exchange views and discuss experiences of enforcement of IFRS. A key function of EECS is the analysis and discussion of decisions taken by independent EU National Enforcers in respect of financial statements published by issuers with securities traded on a regulated market and who prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS.
EECS is not a decision-making forum. It neither approves nor rejects decisions taken by EU National Enforcers who apply their judgement, knowledge and experience to the particular circumstances of the cases that they consider. Relevant factors may include other areas of national law beyond the accounting requirements.
Extracts from the EECS database of enforcement decisions are published on a regular basis.
