Good decisions begin with good information. A bank's board of directors needs concise, accurate, and timely reports to help it perform its fiduciary responsibilities. This booklet describes information generally found in board reports, and it highlights “red flags”—ratios or trends that may signal existing or potential problems. An effective board is alert for the appearance of red flags that give rise to further inquiry. By making further inquiry, the directors can determine if a substantial problem exists or may be forming.

"IFRS SYSTEM evolved out of Financial Reporting Specialists? (FRS, www.frsgroup.com.au) need for a superior automated financial reporting tool. In 2004 when FRS were looking for a tool that could assist them to prepare client?s financial reports, they were unable to find one that did everything to the high standard required. They solved the problem by internally developing IFRS SYSTEM. Since 2004 IFRS SYSTEM has undergone extensive development and testing and it has been used successfully to prepare interim and annual financial reports for hundreds of clients. IFRS SYSTEM has now evolved into a ?commercially ready? application and in addition to its core financial reporting application, IFRS SYSTEM also offers other software, tools and books. IFRS SYSTEM products were marketed for the first time in 2010 and these products have quickly established themselves in leading accounting and auditing firms as well as large and small companies."--Publisher's website.
