Abstract

[eng] Fair value accounting standards and insurance business . Two principal critics can be addressed to traditional accounting standards :. - they aren't internationally standardized ; . - they are based on the historical cost model conceived at the end of industrial revolution for closed economy. This article examines how new accounting standards correspond to insurance business needs, what are specific needs of insurance regarding accounting, if fair value accounting is suited to these specificities and issues implied by the IAS 39. . JEL classifications : G22, M41 [fre] On peut adresser aux normes comptables existantes deux reproches principaux : . - elles varient substantiellement d'un pays à l'autre, comptabilisant les mêmes flux économiques . à des valeurs qui fluctuent selon l'expérience des normalisateurs nationaux. . - elles reposent sur le modèle commun du coût historique qui a été conçu à l'issue de la révolution industrielle pour des économies fermées. Ce modèle nominaliste doit être adapté aux économies de services mondialisées que sont nos économies modernes. On examinera successivement dans cet article dans quelle mesure les objectifs de la réforme des normes comptables répondent aux besoins des métiers de l'assurance, quels sont les besoins spécifiques de l'assurance au regard de la comptabilité, si la comptabilité en juste valeur est adaptée à ces spécificités et les problèmes particuliers que soulève l'application de la norme IAS 39 à l'assurance. . Classification JEL : G22, M41
