World Bank ROSC Reports on Accounting and Auditing
The World Bank has established a programme to assist its member countries in implementing international accounting and auditing standards for strengthening the financial reporting regime. The programme is known as Reports on Standards and Compliance, or ROSC. The objectives of the ROSC program are two-fold:
  • Assessment. Analyse comparability of national accounting and auditing standards with international standards, determine the degree with which applicable accounting and auditing standards are complied, and assess strengths and weaknesses of the institutional framework in supporting high-quality financial reporting.
  • Action plan. Assist the country in developing and implementing a country action plan for improving institutional capacity with a view to strengthening the country's corporate financial reporting regime.
The World Bank conducts reviews of accounting and auditing within the ROSC initiative at the invitation of a country. The World Bank utilises a diagnostic tool that it developed to gather pertinent information for preparing the Accounting and Auditing ROSC. The tool has four components:
  • Accounting and Auditing Environment
  • National Accounting Standards with Reference to International Accounting Standards
  • Actual Accounting Practices
  • Auditing Standards and Practices
