Due Process

The AcSB Standard-Setting Due Process Manual outlines our rigorous set of procedures to develop and adopt standards.

Our due process is based on the following principles:

  • Transparency: conducting our standard-setting process in a transparent manner.
  • Consultation: considering the perspectives of those affected by Canadian financial reporting standards.
  • Accountability: analyzing the potential effects of its proposals on affected parties and explaining the rationale for our decisions when developing or changing a standard in material published with exposure drafts and final standards. We are also directly accountable to the Accounting Standards Oversight Council.
