    Convergence to international financial reporting standards: the case of Turkey
    (Inderscience Publishers, 2005) Simga‐Mugan, C.; Hosal-Akman, N.
    In this paper, we discuss the progress in the accounting standards in Turkey and provide some insight into the current accounting system as well as the recent regulatory developments following the convergence attempts to the global set of financial accounting standards that is currently referred to as the International Financial Reporting Standards/International Accounting Standards (IFRS/IAS) in Turkey. The paper emphasises variations from and similarities with the IFRS/IAS and lays out a brief history of global convergence activities. The paper concludes with a discussion of the effects of convergence on the financial reporting and accounting systems of domestic and multinational companies, and audit firms in Turkey.
