What is the IASB?
The IASB is an independent accounting standard-setting body, based in London. It consists of 14 members from nine countries, including the United States. The IASB began operations in 2001 when it succeeded the International Accounting Standards Committee. It is funded by contributions from major accounting firms, private financial institutions and industrial companies, central and development banks, and other international and professional organizations throughout the world. While the AICPA was a founding member of the International Accounting Standards Committee, the IASB’s predecessor organization, it is not affiliated with the IASB. The IASB neither sponsors nor endorses the AICPA’s IFRS resources website (www.IFRS.com).
