On August 6th, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued its 2024 Investor Outreach Report, which is now available through the FASB’s Investor Web Portal. The report details the investor outreach program, the program’s activities during the last year, and ways the FASB intends to continue expanding on its goals to broaden investor outreach efforts. The viewpoints of investors enhance the FASB’s ability to develop effective standards, so the organization places special importance on pursuing a number of efforts to interact with stakeholders.
Engagement with more than 1,750 investors helped the FASB complete or see substantial advancements in its overall agenda, including the top seven priorities identified by investors during the FASB’s recent agenda consultation:
- standard-setting projects that address digital assets
- income tax disclosures
- disaggregation of financial reporting information
- intangible assets, including software
- statement of cash flows
- financial key performance indicators (KPIs) or non-GAAP metrics
- accounting for ESG-related transactions (environmental credits and ESG-linked financial instruments)
