Beyond the GAAP no.40 (English) - December 2010

December 2010 saw the publication of the exposure draft on hedge accounting (proposals on macro-hedging will have to wait until 2011). The IASB should, for once, draw on fairly wide support. The proposals do aim to simplify hedge accounting and make it possible to hedge more risks.
