IPSASB launches digital platform to help navigate international standards

T

he International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board (IPSASB) has launched a centrally located digital gateway to the international standards that guide the accountancy profession, including IPSAS, the international accrual-based accounting standards

e-International Standards (eIS) aims to make the official standards of the IPSASB more accessible and easily digestible by allowing for convenient digital access anywhere with an internet connection and across multiple devices.

Previously, the standards were only available as harder-to-navigate PDFs or as printed copies and handbooks. The intuitive navigation, advanced search functions and filters, and straightforward controls of eIS make the standards easier to access and utilise.

Current and previous versions of standards are available in one place for use and comparison without the need to obtain multiple handbook editions.
