2013年5月·中國蘇州
2013年5月23日,第4屆XBRL亞洲圓桌論壇在蘇州舉行。與會者討論了加強本地區XBRL合作及建立亞洲XBRL地區組織(暫定名)的可行性。此建議得到了澳大利亞、中國、印度、日本、韓國和新加坡XBRL地區組織的一致支持。
與會代表認識到:
一、本地區作為推動全球經濟增長的重要力量,已經并將繼續在應對國際金融危機、恢復全球經濟增長過程中發揮重要作用。各方應當本著公眾利益,在XBRL應用方面協調立場、加強合作,為增強本地區資本市場和金融市場透明度、方便企業對外報告貢獻力量。
二、近年來,本地區不少國家和地區已應用了XBRL,還有一些國家和地區正準備采用。在信息技術日益全球化背景下,本地區XBRL組織已經并將繼續加強聯系,同時需要考慮進一步建立一種更為系統性、有組織的機制,以便交流XBRL應用中遇到的問題,分享經驗,并為XBRL國際組織維護一套高質量的技術規范做出貢獻。
三、本地區人口眾多,資源豐富,發達市場與新興市場經濟并存。協調好本地區參與XBRL國際組織的活動,將有助于XBRL國際組織真正認識到本地區對技術和規范的需求的多樣性,并提升本地區在全球信息技術標準制定組織中的領導力。
在此基礎上,與會代表討論了加強本地區XBRL合作及建立本地區XBRL組織的相關問題。為推動本地區采用XBRL,分享本地區各國家或地區應用XBRL的經驗,提高本地區企業報告的透明度,協調本地區各國家組織參與XBRL國際組織(XII)標準制定的立場,并支持XBRL國際組織制定高質量技術規范的努力,代表們一致認為應進一步就此進行磋商,以建立一種更為堅實的機制(例如XBRL亞洲組織)。
XBRL國際組織代表邁克·威利斯、國際會計準則理事會(IASB)XBRL活動總監奧利維爾·瑟維斯出席了本次會議,并支持建立XBRL亞洲組織的構想。
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.
