The objective of the CICA Investment Funds Standing Committee is to consider and provide guidance on matters that are pertinent to investment funds with regard to risk management and governance, the transition to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the future role of financial reporting by investment funds in Canada. The CICA Investment Funds Standing Committee will: - update, on a timely basis, guidance on risk management and governance matters;
- update, on a timely basis, guidance on transition issues identified in the migration from Canadian accounting and financial reporting standards to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and, thereafter, ongoing financial reporting matters;
- communicate that guidance to interested parties (for example, through website postings and seminars jointly sponsored by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and the Investment Funds Institute of Canada);
- develop a vision for the future role of financial reporting by investment funds in Canada.
