Analysis: U.S. remains a hurdle to aligning accounting rules

IFRS Report | May 03, 2012

The International Accounting Standards Board and the Financial Accounting Standards Board have been converging major accounting standards for several years, and have passed the original target date of June 2011 for completion. Finance ministers from the Group of 20 nations now have given the boards a deadline, demanding they finish alignment by mid-2013. Even if they do, it is unclear whether the U.S. will move to incorporate international accounting standards in the near future. Reuters (04/26)
