IASB publishes a Discussion Paper on the Conceptual Framework
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) today published for public comment a Discussion Paper exploring possible changes to the IASB’s Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting. The Discussion Paper is the first step towards issuing a revised Conceptual Framework.
