International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) – what was earlier known as the International Accounting Standards (IAS) was founded with the objective of developing a global set of accounting standards in order to facilitate uniformity in financial reporting between countries so as to achieve transparency, accountability and credibility at the global level. Today, more than 140 countries around the world have made it mandatory to comply with IFRS. Almost every business in the UAE with a statutory financial reporting requirement has to comply with IFRS. The increasing complexity of IFRS amidst rapid pace of changes has led to significant increase in demand for expert IFRS advise.
