The European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) has launched a call for expressions of interest for new member organisations in an effort to broaden its membership and strengthen its understanding of the diversity of European financial reporting opinions.

Jean-Paul Gauzes, president of the EFRAG Board, said: “EFRAG aims to represent all European stakeholders that have an interest in financial reporting. Our role is to ensure that International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) best respond to Europe’s needs. In seeking to grow our membership base, we can deepen our understanding of the diversity of European financial reporting opinions and strengthen our assessment of whether new IFRS contribute to the European public good.”
