what is iasb
The IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) is the independent standard-setting body of the IFRS Foundation. All meetings of the IASB are held in public and webcast. In fulfilling its standard-setting duties the IASB follows a thorough, open and transparent due process of which the publication of consultative documents, such as Discussion Papers and Exposure Drafts, for public comment is an important component.
