The focus of the study is on financial reporting for non-U.S. firms registered with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) but using International Accounting Standards (IAS). This study addresses two issues, (1) whether the comparability of financial reporting among firms using IAS in credit and equity financing jurisdictions increases over time and (2) the associated capital market implications. The motivation for the study is the SEC's ongoing assessment of IAS for possible use by non-U.S. registrants for listing and capital raising in the U.S. Previous research on variations in financial reporting practices has revealed distinctly different types of financial reporting depending on country of origin. Moreover, some research suggests that such differences in financial reporting tend to persist in spite of harmonization efforts of accounting standards. This study suggests that there may be a systematic difference between credit and equity firms' financial reporting that is manifested by the fact that credit firms' adjustments to U.S. GAAP are greater than the adjustments made by equity firms. This systematic difference has had the following capital market consequences for credit firms, (1) a decreasing strength of association between accounting earnings and share prices post-1994, (2) an increased bid-ask spread post-1994, and (3) a decreased trading volume post-1994. This may be an indication that on the average firms reporting under IAS fail to meet an important part of the SEC's second assessment criterion with respect to high quality and full disclosure, namely comparability. In addition, it seems that the revisions made by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) have not resulted in more congruent financial reporting among firms reporting under IAS over time.

Dinamiškas tarptautinių finansų rinkų pobūdis įtakojo tai, jog imta plačiai naudoti įvairiausias finansines priemones: nuo paprastų tradicinių priemonių, tokių kaip obligacijos, iki įvairiausių formų išvestinių priemonių, tokių kaip palūkanų normų apsikeitimo sandoriai. Tiek viešojo tiek privataus sektoriaus ūkio subjektai savo veikloje naudoja įvairiausias finansines priemones, pradedant paprasčiausiomis, tokiomis kaip mokėtinos ir gautinos sumos, ir baigiant sudėtingesnėmis priemonėmis- valiutų apsikeitimo sandoriai, kuriais apsidraudžiami įsipareigojimai užsienio valiuta. Finansinių instrumentų naujovės padėjo efektyviau paskirstyti riziką tarp skolininkų ir investuotojų. Tačiau kai kurie finansiniai instrumentai gali būti susiję su sandoriais, kurie daro įtakos bendrovės atskaitomybei ir ji nebeparodo tikrosios bendrovės finansinės padėties. Taigi iškyla problema- kaip tinkamai atskleisti ir pateikti finansinius instrumentus, siekiant informuoti suinteresuotus asmenis dėl tikros bendrovės ekonominės būklės. Ženklus finansinių priemonių naudojimo augimas paskatino užsienio autorius nagrinėti finansinių instrumentų atskleidimą ir pateikimą, kai tuo tarpu Lietuvoje dar tik pradedama taikyti finansinių instrumentų pateikimo praktika. TASV išleido standartus, kaip turi būti pateikiamos finansinės priemonės, tačiau bendrovėms visgi iškyla problema: koks yra išvestinių priemonių poveikis įmonių veiklai ir kaip tam tikri išvestiniai instrumentai susiję su tam tikra rizika.

Background: Growth in international trade and capital flows has triggered a rising economic integration. Because of these developments there has been an international homogenising effect upon many customs, practices and institutions. In business life it led among other things to a desire to harmonise Accounting Standards among countries. Purpose: Our purpose is to answer the question: What is the international harmonisation process of Accounting Standards, what is its status quo and how important is the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) in it? Realisation: In order to fulfil this purpose, we have chosen a descriptive approach, which is based on secondary data from textbooks, articles and homepages. Result: The international harmonisation of Accounting Standards is a process, which brings international Accounting Standards into some sort of agreement, in order to achieve a common set of principles, according to which financial statements from different countries are prepared. With the support of the IASB of the European Union (EU), 7000 European companies have to use International Accounting Standards (IAS) beginning 2005. Furthermore, the long existing rejection of IAS of the U.S. seems to change. Co-ordination of agendas of both standard-setting boards (IASB and Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) have been announced. We conclude, that the IASB plays a major role in the field of international harmonisation. This could be explained with achievements of the IASB, as for example the International Organisation of Security Commissions (IOSCO) Endorsement, EU regulation or the recent agreement of FASB and IASB to co-ordinate their work.

本研究探討台灣於 2013 年接軌國際會計準則（IFRS）後，上市公司對於關係人交易揭露情形之改變。整體而言，財務報表附註之關係人交易段落中揭露的文字大幅減少，透過檢視公報規範及 2013 年實務上之揭露情形，可發現揭露方式的改變是導致關係人資訊驟減的主要原因，大部分上市公司不再提供個別重要關係人之交易資訊。 另外，本文實證研究發現，股權的偏離、負債比率及公司的規模，會讓揭露字數衰減的幅度更為嚴重，但是獨立董事比例愈高的公司，衰減的幅度會被減緩。進一步迴歸分析則指出，就交易事項而言，造成揭露字數下降最關鍵的因素是關係人銷貨和關係人應收（付）帳款票據。具體言之，國內採行 IFRS 並未提升關係人交易揭露品質，且公司各層面的因素對其品質有所影響，主管機關應該加強上市櫃公司關係人交易之審查以及個別重要關係人資訊之揭露。
