Update

Would it be possible to update this article to cover the Congressional debate about the desireability of using mark-to-market valuations, and also the differences between United States accounting standards and the International Financial Reporting Standard issued by the International Accounting Standards Board? (If so, it could be used as a very useful reference in the article on financial regulation). Nick Gardner 14:00, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
