About the IFRS Foundation

The IFRS Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation established to develop high-quality, understandable, enforceable, and globally accepted standards for general purpose financial reporting and to promote and facilitate their adoption.

The Foundation's standard-setting bodies, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), set the standards - IFRS Accounting Standards and IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards.

The IFRS Foundation Trustees oversee the two boards, who are accountable to a Monitoring Board of public authorities.
