Background of the Study
The adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) requires companies to make significant changes to their accounting and reporting practices. As a result, internal control systems, which ensure the accuracy, reliability, and efficiency of financial reporting, must also evolve. IFRS adoption may necessitate the redesign of internal controls to accommodate the increased complexity and transparency required under the new reporting framework. This study seeks to examine the effect of IFRS adoption on the internal control systems of Nigerian corporations.
Statement of the Problem
The adoption of IFRS may lead to challenges in maintaining or enhancing effective internal control systems in Nigerian corporations. The new accounting requirements may demand greater documentation, new systems for financial reporting, and adjustments to existing control procedures. This study aims to assess the impact of IFRS adoption on internal control systems in Nigerian corporations and identify the areas of improvement or challenges faced.
