| Abstract: | This article reports on the on-going attempt for convergence of accounting standards. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) held a meeting concerning the elimination of differences between international and US standards. According to the writer, there may be some way to go before convergence, but standard-setters do agree on some things. One of the main questions is the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. |
