This study whose objective is to evaluate the banks’ compliance level of IFRS focuses on the financial statements of banks selected from Germany, England, France, Italy and Sweden within the framework of the total assets of the banking sector according to European Central Bank data. This selection aims to provide the opportunity to observe the financial reporting differences from the banking perspective among the Central, Northern, Southern European countries. Sample data of this study belongs to the financial statements of the year-2014. The findings of this study show that the banks in this sample are largely in compliance with IFRS requirements but the lack of a clear format in presentating financial statements still create difficulties to the users of financial information. In addition, it was observed that Turkish banks do IFRS compliant reporting like globally important banks.
Bankaların Uluslararası Finansal Raporlama Standartlarına uyum düzeylerini görebilmek amacıyla yapılan bu çalışmada Türkiye ve Avrupa Birliği üyesi 5 ülkeden seçilen bankaların finansal tabloları incelenerek UFRS gereklerine ne düzeyde uydukları araştırılmıştır. Araştırma kapsamındaki ülkeler, bankacılık sektörü aktif büyüklükleri Avrupa Merkez Bankası verilerine göre en büyük 4 ülke olan Almanya, İngiltere, Fransa, İtalya ile İsveç’tir. Bu seçimle Orta, Kuzey, Güney ve Batı Avrupa ülkelerinden bankacılık alanındaki finansal raporlama farklılıkları da görülmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın verileri örneklemde yer alan bankaların 2014 yılı finansal tablolarıdır. Çalışma sonucunda örneklemde yer alan bankaların UFRS gereklerine büyük oranda uydukları, finansal tabloların sunuluşunda belli formatın olmayışının finansal bilgi kullanıcıları için zorluk yaratmaya devam ettiği, Türk bankasının da küresel anlamda öneme sahip diğer bankalar kadar UFRS uyumlu finansal raporlama yaptığı görülmüştür.
