The rapid globalization of capital markets has increased attention
toward examining the quality of the disclosure practices
implemented by companies, as internationalization and globalization
are the most important motives of the harmonization of financial
statements preparation and presentation. Given the expansion of
trade and the openness to foreign capital markets, investment
decisions became not limited only for local users, but also
international users may need to access the financial information.
The issuance of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
to be used throughout the world aims to improve the comparability
and understandability of financial statements, and hence, to
enhance investment decisions through helping investors across the
borders to invest in multinational companies. Although fluid and
under-developed institutional arrangements remain central features
of emerging markets, ensuring effective corporate governance
mechanisms would indeed support companies in complying with IFRS -
the latter imposes a challenge for companies operating in emerging
markets. This book evaluates the differences in the level of
compliance with IFRS across the GCC states, exploring the impact of
corporate governance on the level of compliance with IFRS and
presenting an empirical analysis of companies across the GCC. It
makes an important contribution by providing a detailed empirical
analysis of the interplay between corporate governance and IFRS in
emerging market setting and highlights the way for future research.
It will provide international business, management, and accounting
and finance students and senior practitioners with a completely new
and updated guide to the work in the field of corporate governance
and IFRS compliance in emerging markets.
