Course Overview From 2005 onwards, EU listed companies are required to use IFRS for their consolidated financial statements. However, in most of Europe, this development has not affected the financial reporting of individual companies, such as the continental subsidiaries of UK or US multinational groups. This course examines the rules and practices of financial reporting by individual companies, concentrating on Germany and France but also referring to Italy and Spain. The course is designed to suit preparers, auditors or users of the financial statements of continental European companies.
