This paper investigates the relation between differences in accounting standards across countries and foreign analyst following and forecast accuracy. We develop two measures of differences in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for 1,176 country-pairs. We then examine the impact of these measures of accounting differences on foreign analysts. In so doing, we utilize a unique database that identifies the location of financial analysts around the world, creating a sample that covers 6,888 foreign analysts making a total of 43,968 forecasts for 6,169 firms from 49 countries during 1998 - 2004. We find that the extent to which GAAP differs between two countries is negatively related to both foreign analyst following and forecast accuracy. Our results suggest that GAAP differences are associated with economic costs for financial analysts.

Michael Erkens analyzes the determinants and consequences of information disclosure. He presents an empirical investigation of corporate risk management disclosures of nearly 400 firms from 20 European countries. The results show that countries’ institutional settings and cultural values are predominant factors why firms disclose information on their risk management practices. In another study, the author analyzes the economic consequences associated with the publication of an annual report in English by European firms from non-English speaking countries. He finds that the release of English annual reports attracts more analysts and foreign investors to the firm, and decreases information asymmetries between insiders and outsiders of the firm.

Accounting has often been described as the language of business. As the increasing competition of overseas markets begins to affect even the smallest local companies, many more business professionals must become fluent in accounting principles and practice. Standardization of Financial Reporting and Accounting in Latin American Countries highlights the recent move to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and addresses some of the concerns raised due to cultural differences and the level of enforcement of these standards in separate countries. Describing the evolution of both financial and managerial accounting due to the adoption of IFRS, this book is an essential reference source for both students and seasoned professionals in the fields of accounting, finance, and related management fields, especially those with an international emphasis.

Beginning in fiscal 2007, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) allowed foreign companies traded on U.S. stock exchanges to report under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) or U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP). This study investigates if analyst forecast accuracy is affected by the reporting standards used. If U.S. GAAP and IFRS are equivalent sets of high-quality standards, as purported by the IASB and SEC, then there should not be any difference in forecast accuracy. If, on the other hand, analyst forecast accuracy differs based on the accounting standards used, the U.S. GAAP and IFRS may not be comparable. With a sample of 366 firm-years from 2007 to 2010, we find that there are no significant differences in forecast errors for companies reporting under IFRS versus U.S. GAAP. This result indicates that the information provided by both sets of standards is sufficient for sophisticated users. This is especially important because foreign companies traded on U.S. exchanges will be electing between these two alternative reporting methods into the foreseeable future. In addition, there is some discussion that the SEC may allow U.S. companies to report under either method, so this study informs that debate. Our results indicate that the predictive models employed by analysts are equally effective when based on financial results reported under U.S. GAAP or IFRS.
