Abstract

[fre] Depuis sa création en 2001 et la nomination à sa tête de David Tweedie, l’International Accounting Standards Boards (IASB) a connu un succès spectaculaire, marqué par l’adoption de ses normes, sous des formes variées, dans la plupart des économies développées et émergentes. Toutefois, ce succès crée pour l’IASB une responsabilité de type politique vis-à-vis de l’ensemble des acteurs affectés par ses normes, que l’organisme de normalisation internationale a eu des difficultés à endosser et à laquelle il ne s’est pas à ce jour entièrement adapté. Depuis 2007, la crise financière a accentué les défis qui se posent à l’IASB concernant son mandat, ses structures, et son rôle en aval de la normalisation proprement dite. L’analyse de ces défis permet d’identifier trois scénarios concernant l’évolution de l’IASB après le départ de David Tweedie programmé en 2011. . Classification JEL : M41, M48. [eng] International Accounting Standard-Setting : The Challenges of the Post-Tweedie Era.. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has met spectacular success since its creation in 2001 and the appointment of Sir David Tweedie as its chairman, as its International Financial Reporting Standards have been publicly endorsed in various forms in most developed and emerging economies. However, success means the IASB acquires a collective, quasi-political responsibility to all economic actors that are affected by its standards. The IASB so far has found it difficult to acknowledge this responsibility and adapt to it through the creation of adequate channels of accountability. The financial crisis since 2007 has accentuated the IASB’s challenges along three dimensions : its mandate, its structure, and its role downstream of standard-setting. Analysis of these challenges leads to identify three possible scenarios for the IASB after the departure of Sir David Tweedie in 2011. . Classification JEL : M41, M48. . .
