Introduction
The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IP-SAS) are established to bring consistency to accounting standards and practices, regardless of the company or the country; and they are also designed to help businesses, in-vestors, countries and other users of financial statements, to make educated financial analyses and decisions. Interna-tional accounting standards instil accountability, integrity and transparency which in turn lay a foundation for corpo-rate governance and fosters public confidence.

Covid-19 pan-demic has aggravated these challenges since it has affect-ed almost every existing accounting standard, and more than ever, collaboration, guidance and knowledge sharing are needed to tackle these challenges.
