Academic research shows that IFRS-based financial statements enhance transparency and comparability of financial statements. However, Securities and Exchange Commission, the regulatory body in the United States, continues to refuse to require or permit domestic companies to use IFRS. There exists a robust demand for IFRS in the United States. Though there are some obstacles in the path of IFRS adoption, these are not considered insurmountable and adoption of IFRS will provide US companies with much needed flexibility.
