International Accounting Standards – What it Means to You
Like it or not, International Accounting Standards are coming, and they will impact everyone in the accounting profession. This one hour seminar will present an overview of the convergence of U.S. GAAP Accounting with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). It will explore the SEC’s role in this movement and the timeframe over which these changes may take place. It will also present the implications that this movement toward international standards may have on Insurance Statutory Accounting.
