Abstract

[eng] The outlook of FASB . 1996 has been a very difficult year for the FASB (the American Financial Accounting Standards Board) because of many reasons. To begin with, at national level it has been criticized for being too lenient as regards American companies and then, at international level, its leadership is gradually losing ground and being outstripped by another regulating body, the IASC (International Accounting Standards Comitteee).. Which will then be its role within this new, rather hostile, environment ? It is yet too early to know it in advance. However, the FASB has designed a comprehensive strategic plan listing detailed objectives to meet and actions to carry out so as to keep its leading role both in the United States and world-wide. [fre] Pour le FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board), organisme normalisateur américain, 1996 fut une année difficile à plusieurs titres : tout d'abord, à l'intérieur du pays, on lui reproche sa trop grande complaisance à l'égard des entreprises américaines et ensuite, sur la scène internationale, sa place de premier plan est en train d'être occupée petit à petit par un autre organisme normalisateur, l'IASC (International Accounting Standards Committee). Quel va donc être le rôle du FASB dans ce nouvel environnement plutôt hostile ? Il est encore trop tôt pour le savoir ; toutefois, le FASB a élaboré un plan stratégique complet retraçant les objectifs détaillés à atteindre et les actions à mener pour tenter de conserver son rôle de leader tant aux États-Unis qu'au niveau mondial.
