Beyond the GAAP no.61 - November 2012

Convergence at any cost is coming under more and more criticism, and the FASB’s recent decision to withdraw from the compromise on the impairment of financial assets will hardly ease anyone’s mind. The European Commission believes that 2013 will be the year of truth as far as US participation in IFRSs is concerned.
