Project description

The AOSSG Working Group on the IFRS for SMEs aims to:

• monitor the ongoing work of the IASB in revising the IFRS for SMEs
• facilitate the AOSSG’s contribution to the IASB’s consultations in relation to revising the IFRS for SMEs, including providing ideas for improvement
• facilitate bringing issues of interest to AOSSG members to the IASB’s attention, including informing the IASB about the manner in which the IFRS for SMEs is being used in AOSSG jurisdictions, and highlighting practical issues and any barriers to its use in AOSSG jurisdictions.

In meeting these aims, the Working Group conducts research and liaises with relevant constituents in the Asia-Oceania region.
