Summary/Abstract: The new Turkish Commercial Code (TCC) has imposed the obligation to comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the Public Surveillance, Accounting and Auditing Standards Board on all enterprises with regard to the accounting and financial reporting issues. In accordance with the new TCC, large sized enterprises shall prepare financial statements complying with the full set of IFRS and small sized enterprises shall prepare financial statements complying with the IFRS for Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SME) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) in 2009. SME financial reporting standard is a specific standard that is prepared separately from the full set. It has taken the full set IFRS' as basis, simplified them and made them more useful for SMEs. Another new ground broken by the new TCC is, however, that the independent audit has become mandatory in enterprises.
