Jan. 31, 2011 - PRLog -- AccountingWEB Partners with AccountingWEB UK to Globally Cover IFRS
Westerville, OH (January 31, 2011) – AccountingWEB, the leading online community for accountants, announces a partnership with its sister publication, AccountingWEB.co.uk, to share content and perspectives on the International Financial Reporting Standards. IFRS is a set of accounting standards developed by the International Accounting Standards Board. The goal of IFRS is to provide a global framework for how public companies prepare and disclose their financial statements.

The AccountingWEB IFRS Zone will house news, resources, links, and other information relating to International Financial Reporting Standards, XBRL, and the activities of the IASB and the SEC on this front. IFRS Zone will provide commentary from experts around the world. A joint effort of AccountingWEBs US and UK, this international zone promises to be a one-stop source for the latest information and tools relating to convergence.

AccountingWEB.com Editor-in-Chief, Gail Perry, CPA said, “We’ve been planning this launch for quite some time and are excited to be able to bring it to fruition. By teaming with AccountingWEB.co.uk, we are building on our unique international position to share a global perspective with our readers on both sides of the Atlantic.”

Beginning in February, the two AccountingWEBs will jointly publish a quarterly newsletter apprising readers of the latest developments in this important arena. Additional information on AccountingWEB’s IFRS Zone is located here:  http://www.accountingweb.com/category/tags/ifrs.
