Standard Setting Organizations

Accounting standards are not developed overnight, or through a sudden stroke of brilliance, or accidental discovery in a laboratory. These standards are the results of careful study, research, discussion, and exposure to users of accounting information. This rigorous process helps in the general acceptability of standards by the profession. The credibility of standards starts with the stature, competence, and respectability of those charged with developing them. Standard setting organizations have the most experienced, highly educated, and respectable professionals in their midst to conceptualize, develop, and implement standards.
