Published on 12 April 2007 at a meeting in London hosted by the Centre for the Study of Financial Innovation.

The piece presents accounting standard-setting as a frontier experiment in international governance, where private initiative can succeed in solving a collective problem that nation-states could not tackle effectively.

To make the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) sustainable, the legitimacy of the International Accounting Standards Board has to be bolstered and key supporters, such as the EU, must implement them consistently.
