IASB (International Accounting Standards Board)

The IASB held its regular meeting on 12–14 June 2012, much of it a joint meeting with the FASB. With the exception of revenue recognition, discussions were held on each of the major joint projects (leases, insurance contracts and financial instruments), with a highlight being the boards agreement on a common approach to lease expense recognition. Other topics discussed included the proposed exemption from consolidation for investment entities, various matters related to the IFRS Interpretations Committee, the post-implementation review of IFRS 8 and the comprehensive review of the IFRS for SMEs.
