Text 3: The European Union
The European Union (the EU) was announced by fifteen European countries, mostly former Common Market countries, in 1992 when they signed the Treaty on European Union. These member countries were Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Austria, Luxembourg, Denmark, the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, and the United Kingdom.
The treaty set, as its objective, the establishment of economic and monetary union. In January 1999 a single currency (the euro) was introduced, though Great Britain did not join the euro and it is still keeping the pound sterling. Joining the euro is being highly debated and a recent poll showed that most Bretons supported this perspective.
At present Europe's citizens approve of the enlargement of the European Union and the entry of ten new member states scheduled for 2004. In addition to Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic, the accession countries comprised Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Cyprus, and Malta.
In June 2002 the Council of Ministers of the European Union approved a regulation requiring all listed (publicly-traded) companies in all member states to prepare their consolidated financial statements using International Accounting Standards (IAS) by no later than 2005. The other companies must comply by 2007. All that requires extensive system changes.
The transition to IAS is now an urgent issue for 7,000 companies in the European Union that currently report under national GAAP, and for other countries and companies that are planning to adopt IAS.
