The European Commission has outlined a strategy for future financial reporting in Europe which is designed to help eliminate remaining barriers to cross-border trading in securities, in particular by recommending that there be one set of accounting standards so that company accounts throughout the European Union are more transparent and can be more easily compared. The strategy is a key element of the Financial Services Action Plan adopted in May 1999 and the Lisbon Summit also explicitly insisted on the creation of an efficient, deep and liquid securities market in Europe
