DESCRIPTION

There has been much discussion surrounding the transition from US GAAP to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). As we sit today, there is still no definitive answer, but Mayer Hoffman McCann is following the ongoing discussions so we can be prepared and keep our clients informed, as well as work with companies already filing under IFRS. During this course, Keith Peterka of MHM's IFRS Solutions Group will discuss the current status of global standard setting as well as what’s happening in convergence between the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). He will also talk about how IFRS differs from US GAAP on various topics.
