IFRS

On August 27, 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed a roadmap outlining key milestones that need to be met as the SEC moves toward the mandatory adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for all U.S. filers.

The proposed SEC roadmap provides an initial timeline enabling U.S. issuers to begin assessing the impact IFRS will have on their businesses and planning for an orderly transition to IFRS. Proactively assessing the impact of IFRS on your company will also allow you to evaluate the cost, benefits and opportunities created by this transition.

If you could benefit from a best-practice approach to assessing the impact of IFRS on your company, Jefferson Wells can help. Our clients include Fortune 500 and Global 1000 companies, and our professionals are skilled in technical accounting, financial process improvement, tax, project management, technology and internal control compliance.

Developed in public and private companies, our expertise encompasses a variety of industries and business environments, enabling us to assist you in assessing:

  • Organizational readiness and recommending next steps
  • The impact and risks of transitioning from U.S. GAAP to IFRS with respect to internal and external financial statements
  • The impact and risks of transitioning from U.S. GAAP to IFRS on tax accounting, strategy and planning
  • Current policies and procedures for consistent and complete compliance with IFRS
  • Current processes and related internal controls to ensure SOX 302 and 404 compliance is maintained
  • Project management needs from assessment through implementation

Our IFRS Impact Assessment Services add value when:

  • Resources with technical IFRS and/or implementation experience are not available in-house
  • An unbiased view of your specific situation is needed or required without jeopardizing auditor independence or increasing audit fees
  • Finance, tax and control functions are decentralized
  • Change management skills are limited
