EM

English translation: equity reporting form

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:EM
English translation:equity reporting form

Bus/Financial - Accounting / IFRS rules
German term or phrase: EM
"Es muss klar dargestellt werden, wer die Mitglieder des XXX sind und welche Institute in die Bilanz, G/V, EM und Risikorechnung berücksichtigt werden."

I think "EM" means Eigenmittel, i.e. equity capital. Not sure, though. Can anybody help? Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

equity reporting form
Explanation:
Assuming this is about banks, I think you are half right. It's more likely that EM means Eigenmittle-Meldebogen, a reporting form required by BaFin as per the Capital Requirements Regulation.

But this is just my "best guess" and only the author can tell you for certain.

Eigenmittel of course, sorry for the typo.

Explanation:
Hi Marc,
Your text is about which institutions must be considered in the balance sheet, P&L, Equity Capital and Risk Management. To me it does simply make no sense if the bank is considered in the "Meldebogen".

neutral  Ted Wozniak: If the banks are reporting on a consolidated basis, then it makes perfect sense to ask which banks must be included in all those items, including BaFin reports
