Financial instruments stand for a critical role in current economy. Total value of financial assets was $167 trillion due to McKinsey study in 2007. More alarming is a fact that total value of all derivative at OTC market was more than $600 trillion what is more than world's wealth. It is obvious that such a market needs rigorous regulation. International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) releasing new standard which regulate only financial instruments aims to react on that fact. In first part I would like to show current situation on financial market and brief regulation due to current rules. From the text there should be obvious nowadays turbulent environment and crisis deforming financial market. It was necessity for me to demonstrate the process of developing and adopting of the new standard. Next part of my diploma thesis refers to adopted rules for financial assets. This should be the fundamental part for users of financial statements as well as for my diploma thesis. The main changes took part in classification of financial assets. There are two new concepts for classification of financial asset which should be described in detailed. For better illustration I also placed practical part for classification according to new models. For readers it is convenient to know the differences between exposure draft and released standard. That should demonstrate the complex view of IASB. There are few changes in classification of financial liabilities. The main change is in specific case of own credit which I posted in thesis. This specific problem postponed the whole endorsement of the standard. The last chapter is dedicated to convergence between IFRS and US GAAP. Both parties work on convergence on reporting of financial instruments.
