NAR Coalition Letter to FAF and FASB Regarding Private Company Council Leases

Issue Date: January 29, 2016


On January 20, 2016, NAR as part of a broad industry coalition submitted a letter to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the Financial Accounting Foundation. The signatories are concerned that the decision to apply the soon-to-be finalized lease accounting standard to private businesses would exacerbate complexity, not meet the needs of private company investors and harm capital formation for those businesses.
