The IFRS Foundation is a not-for-profit, public interest organisation established to develop high-quality, understandable, enforceable and globally accepted accounting and sustainability disclosure standards. 

Our Standards are developed by our two standard-setting boards, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). 

IFRS Accounting Standards set out how a company prepares its financial statements. IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards set out how a company discloses information about sustainability-related factors that may help or hinder a company in creating value.

The two boards will work closely to ensure their Standards complement each other to provide investors with transparent and reliable information about a company’s financial position and performance, as well as information about sustainability factors that could create or erode its enterprise value in the short, medium and long term.
