Thank you very much for that introduction, may I say that I am extremely pleased to be here today. As mentioned, I am here in my capacity as Chairman of CESRfin which is CESR's permanent group of experts in the field of financial reporting.
My main focus today is on the European securities regulators' interest in financial accounting and the important role that CESR is playing in the endorsement, implementation and enforcement of IFRS in the EU as well as on the equivalence of other accounting standards with IFRS.
