Abstract

Zusammenfassung Das Rahmenkonzept soll die Zielsetzungen und Eigenschaften der IFRS offenbaren und wichtige Definitionen enthalten. Es soll insbesondere dem Board als Leitlinie zur Entwicklung von widerspruchsfreien IFRS, den Rechnungslegungsadressaten als Information über Eigenschaften von IFRS-Abschlüssen und, ohne selbst IFRS zu sein, der Schließung von Regelungslücken dienen. Bisher ist das Rahmenkonzept von 1989 nur in Teilen überarbeitet worden, hat aber bereits Perspektivenwechsel erkennen lassen. Insbesondere wurden bei der Entscheidungsnützlichkeit der Information die Verlässlichkeit zugunsten der glaubwürdigen Darstellung aufgegeben, die Funktion der Rechenschaft nicht mehr explizit genannt und Vorsicht mit Verweis auf Widerspruch zu Neutralität getilgt. Der Beitrag analysiert diese Vorgänge hinsichtlich ihrer Auswirkungen für den Standardsetzer und die Ersteller und Nutzer von IFRS-Abschlüssen. Er zeigt, dass nach jetzigem Stand die Funktion des Rahmenkonzepts, den IASB bei der Standardentwicklung konkret leiten zu können sowie dem Ersteller und Nutzer der Rechnungslegung das hinter IFRS stehende System verständlich werden zu lassen, nicht erfüllt wird und sich damit auch die Frage nach seiner Notwendigkeit stellt.
