Abstract

Chapter 5 examines the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in July 2009, outlining their acceptance and the successful implementation of the standards around the world. This was the first set of international accounting standards developed particularly for non-publicly accountable entities in response to strong international demand for a simplified set of accounting standards for SMEs. Globally, 80-plus jurisdictions have adopted IFRS for SMEs, while some jurisdictions have indicated their desire to adopt the standards for non-publicly accountable entities.
