The responsibilities identified in this Memorandum are key areas of responsibility in building and maintaining the relationship between the IASB and other accounting standard-setters in order to achieve these aims for the benefit of constituents.
The Memorandum relates to a general understanding between the IASB and other accounting standard-setters and is particularly relevant to standard-setters in jurisdictions that have adopted or converged with IFRSs, or are in the process of adopting or converging with IFRSs.
It identifies responsibilities that the IASB and other standard-setters should use their best endeavours to fulfil in the interests of facilitating the ongoing adoption of or convergence with IFRSs. It is acknowledged that some accounting standard-setters may find it difficult to meet certain of those responsibilities with the resources at their disposal, but would use their best endeavours to do so.
