Beyond the GAAP no.156 - June 2021
At the end of June, Hans Hoogervorst, Chair of the International Accounting Standards Board, has stepped down after a 10-year tenure. Andreas Barckow, who has previously served on several IFRS Foundation advisory bodies, has taken over for a first mandate as head of the IASB as of 1 July. As the IASB changes its chairman and several Board members are replaced, the IASB's work plan is still ambitious, with major projects to be completed.
Beyond the GAAP no.155 - May 2021
As is now traditional at this time of year, this issue of Beyond the GAAP presents a rundown of the new standards that are mandatory or permitted at the 30 June 2021 half-yearly closing.
Beyond the GAAP no.154 - April 2021
In its final report on the “fitness check” on the EU framework for public reporting by companies, which began in 2018, the European Commission has concluded that IFRSs ensure high-quality financial information and comparability of financial statements.

Beyond the GAAP no.151 - January 2021
2021 opens with a relatively stable IFRS framework in which to prepare the consolidated financial statements for this financial year, given the limited number and scope of the standards coming into force on 1 January.
Beyond the GAAP no.150 - December 2020
As we move into the new year, the Beyond the GAAP editorial team would like to wish you all the best for 2021: here’s hoping that the health crisis will soon be over...
Beyond the GAAP no.149 - November 2020
While 2020 has required a lot of work on the accounting impacts of the public health crisis, it should also be noted that most companies are now done with the upheaval resulting from the implementation of new standards (although IFRS 16 remains an enforcement priority at 31 December).
