Description :
|
The International Accounting Standards Board and the US Financial Accounting Standards Board (the Boards) are developing a common conceptual framework (ie a single converged framework) that is both complete and internally consistent and otherwise improves upon the existing frameworks of both Boards.
Such a framework would provide a sound foundation for developing future accounting standards and is essential to fulfilling the boards’ goal of developing standards that are principles-based, internally consistent, internationally converged, and that lead to financial reporting that provides the information needed for investment, credit, and similar decisions. The Boards are conducting the project in eight phases.
