1.     Single set of high-quality accounting standards established by a single standard-setting body. Who are they?

Set of high quality accounting standards is a necessity to ensure adequate comparability. There are 2 organization that have role in it, they are International Organization Of Securities Commisions (IOSCO) and IASB (International Accounting Standards Board).

a. IOSCO tidak membuat standard accounting but this organization help in regulating the world’s securities and future markets. IOSCO also supports the development and use IFRS or IASB as the single set of high quality international standards in cross border offerings and listings.

b. IASB was originally formed in 1973 as the International Accounting Standards Committee (IASC) and renamed it as IASB in 2001, and then known as IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) until now. The standard setters of IFRS are:

-The IFRS Foundation : it provides oversight to the IASB, IFRS Advisory Council, and IFRS Interpretations Committee, and it also appoints members, review the effectiveness, and helps in the fundraising efforts for these organizations

-The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) : It develops a single set of high quality, enforceable, and global international financial reporting standards for general purpose financial statements

-The IFRS Advisory Council : it provides advice and counsel to the IASB on major policies and technical issues

-The IFRS Interpretations Committee : it assists the IASB throung the timely identification, discussion, and resolution of financial reporting issues within the framework of IFRS

And then, as a link between accounting standard-setters and those public authorities, a monitoring board was created in order to oversees and provides political legitimacy to the overall organization.

2.     Consistency in application and interpretation. How does this work?

Consistency in application and interpretation means that when a firm, especially the accountant of the firm decides to use or adopt an accounting principle or method, then the clerk must use it consistently for the future accounting period, both in the terms of its application and interpretation. The clerk is not allowed to change the method of accounting in reporting the financial results, because some of firms frequently change the method of accounting in order to record more revenue or profits for the company, so the profits can  be suddenly changed and it is used for attracting the investors. Also, the consistency in application and interpretation of accounting is important for the auditors. The auditors would really concern the consistency usage in financial reporting method, so, if the firms follow the consistency principle, then the auditors can compare the reports from period to period in more detail, organized, effective, and efficient, and also it also makes the auditors can  measure and audit or find the problem in the firms’ reporting more easily.

5.     Common approach to regulatory review and enforcement.

Application of international accounting standard is to determine that reporting under international accounting standard is associated with high accounting quality. Regulatory review refers to processes that issued by agencies. Regulatory review may involve an examination of the content or effect of a rule, its estimated economic costs and benefits, or the rules and the rulemaking agency to procedural requirements. Regulatory review process allows the agencies or industries to ensure that the regulations drafted by different agencies contribute to the administration’s goals. System of regulatory oversight looks reasonably comprehensive. Agencies must use cost-benefit analysis to determine which rules to adopt. The greater the impact of a rule on the economy, the more rigorous the accompanying analysis must be. It can be said that regulatory review is important to be applied in agencies to create system that results in cost benefit and lower cost of operational. Regulatory review creates standard to provide agencies’ rule that can make high accounting quality. Rules, procedures, policies, are important to prevent from asymmetric information. For an example, if an agency has regulatory review, it means that it has a standard, so that people will understand with the documents. It will create high accounting quality. The agency must also assess and compare the costs and benefits of feasible alternatives and justify why its ultimate choice of regulatory method maximizes the benefits. Regulatory review comprises all the regulations likely to have serious effect in our economy, isolated scrutiny of them might be a reasonable way to conserve scarce government resources. So that, regulatory review is important to maintain the operational of an agency that will create high accounting quality by providing standards like rules, policies, and procedures that will estimate economic costs and benefits.

Examples of regulatory review

- Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has responsibility for writing the regulations that implement environmental laws

- Administrative Procedure Act (APA), uniform procedures for federal agencies to propose and issue regulations, a process known as rulemaking. Policy statements and licenses issued by agencies and provides for judicial review of agency adjudications and other final decisions.

- Congressional Review Act (CRA), by passing a joint resolution of disapproval that is then signed by the president, can overturn new federal agency rules and block those agencies from creating similar rules in the future.

- Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA), a process used by regulators and other government officials to assess the anticipated costs and benefits of a regulation. The process involves comparing the estimated effects of a regulation with the estimated effects of other regulatory and non-regulatory options, including inaction.

- Significant regulatory action, economically significant rules and other significant rules.

7. Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) is a standard electronic communication language in an XML-based business data transmission and communication (Extensible Markup Language) that is used to support and perfect the process of preparation, collection and identification of data, analysis and presentation of more complex business information so in the process can be more effective and efficient in terms of time and cost, the information becomes more accurate and reliable in the business decision-making process by users such as analysts, investors, lenders, creditors, or regulators, even the inspection and validation process has been automated.
With XBRL, the data and information will be extracted and converted in shape without changing the data / information with the help of software into the XBRL electronic reporting format that refers to the reporting standards that already apply. XBRL consists of identifying tags and a kind of dictionary containing XBRL elements called XBRL taxonomies that can define, identify, and show the relationship of the data presented which are then grouped according to the type and information needs that need to be presented in a company's business reporting.
Business reports presented in XBRL format are referred to as document instances, where these reports can be used accessed, extracted, processed electronically, and their publications can be changed into various document formats. Even with this XBRL the presentation of reports can be more flexible for global investors because the XBRL format implements a standard of identifying information and can be expanded so that it is adapted to various types of needs for analysis using their own language.

8. Countries around the world have different corporate governance and legal frameworks. This is due to differences in history, culture, character, and legal systems and government policies that apply in the country, as well as the internal factors of each company in the country.
Those following are a few examples of corporate governance approaches and legal frameworks in various countries.
1. United States
In the US, investors play a very important role in corporate governance. The corporate governance approach in the US is more focused on minimizing conflicts of interest between owners / financiers and their management, namely by providing management with a number of incentives. Corporate governance in the US also relies more on disclosure rather than structural and process processes, because disclosure demands in the US are very high.
In the US, the roles of chairman and CEO are combined so that the power of a company is concentrated on 1 party.
2. Germany
The structure of corporate governance in Germany is among the most powerful in the whole world.
In Germany, the supervisory board must be separate from the board of shareholders and the function of the CEO who oversees the operations and management of the company.
3. Japan
Corporate governance in Japan focuses on how to increase the value of the country's currency and how to minimize risks arising from the banking realm. The Ministry of Finance in Japan also plays a greater role in the financial markets so that it is more strict. In addition, ownership is also based on the keiretsu system where the dominant shareholder is a holding company. And ownership in Japan is also dominated by "insiders" with subordinates who are very loyal so that in Japan this indeed upholds "trust" in managing the company.
