It is established that a necessary condition for the operation of each bank is a unique accounting system.

Effective bank management depends on the integrity, reliability and reliability of the information provided. The financial statements of each bank reflect the results of activities for the light period. The bank must prepare financial statements in accordance with the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards and regulations of the National Bank of Ukraine and submit statistical reports on operations, liquidation, solvency, guidance and information. The effective functioning of the bank depends on various factors affecting its financial stability. All bank operations are exposed to risks, so customers, investors and their partners need certain guarantees of return on investment in banks. Especially important in modern conditions is the openness of all market participants, especially credit institutions. This is achieved by complete financial information about their activities. Notice of financial statements, which gives the participant a complete picture of financial stations, the results of its activities at the moment and in the future. Such information is easy to compare with the reporting data of foreign counterparties. The preparation of such reports should be regulated and enshrined in the legislation of Ukraine. However, now we have some discrepancies in the reporting of banks for IFRS in the requirements of the NBU and the requirements of the IFRS Committee.

The approach to the implementation of IFRS in banking institutions will ensure the creation of a new level of trust in potential partners, as well as attract foreign investment and loans, which will help solve national banking problems.

The primary objective of this article is to investigate the impact of culture (as measured by Hofstede) on disclosures in financial statements prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) by firms from different countries. The sample comprises 2011−2013 consolidated financial statements of stock companies (excluding banks, insurance, and other financial institutions) from four countries repre- senting different cultural areas: the United Kingdom (Anglo), Germany (Germanic), Poland (Central Eastern Europe; CEE) and Kuwait (Arab). The research material came from 312 annual consolidated financial statements from 104 companies. The results reveal that cultural values have a significant impact on financial disclosures even after the use of IFRS. The paper is one of the few comparative studies attempting to assess the effects of culture on financial disclosures in Western Europe countries, CEE countries and Arab countries. Most of the international comparative studies in this research area have neglected CEE and Arab countries.

The present article analyses the impact of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) convergence on financial statements in India. Our focus is on the most significant and challenging standard, that is, IND-AS (financial instruments). Our focus is on the most significant and challenging standard i.e IND-AS(Financial Instruments) and their impact on debt-equity classification brought about by the new standard(s). We analyse the annual reports of 30 listed entities having outstanding preference share capital for the years 2015–2016 and 2016–2017. We redefine the formulae of ratios most commonly used in loan agreements (popularly referred to as ‘debt covenants’) from lenders’ perspective and empirically examine the impact of IFRS convergence on the value of these ratios for the same financial year, that is, 2015–2016. Our results show that there is a significant difference in the value of ratios calculated using newly developed formulae and by applying the old formulae on new data. The study is the first of its kind to empirically examine the impact of IND-AS specifically standard relating to financial instruments on debt ratios in India. Our contribution to the literature is that we not only examine the impact on ratios on transition to IND-AS but also offer a solution as to how the users can mitigate this impact by making adjustments to the debt ratios taking into account the recognition, measurement and presentation changes brought about by IND-AS, so that they can apply our newly developed formulae directly on IND-AS statements and derive the same meaning and interpretation from the ratios as before retaining their practical usage. Thus, our study is of immediate practical relevance to lenders, credit managers and investors aiding their decision making.
