Even if we act urgently, a revision cannot be made in time for the announcement of the financial results for the first half ended in September. The fiscal year ends mostly in December according to foreign accounting standards, while most Japanese companies close annual account books in March, although they announce results for the quarter ending in December. In any case, it is problematic that there is a gap between the standards in Japan and abroad, so I hope that a conclusion on this matter will be reached quickly from the viewpoint of ensuring consistency, and I am strongly interested in this matter.発音を聞く 例文帳に追加

ただ緊急ということになれば、９月期決算というのはとてもこれは間に合いませんけれども、世界の会計基準は大体12月が決算になっていますね。日本は３月が大体多いですけれども、そうすると12月決算、しかし日本は四半期決算が12月にありますけれども、その時にちょっと基準がずれちゃうという問題点が出てきますので、これは整合性を持たせるという意味からも私は早急にこれは結論を出してもらいたいし、これについては私自身も強い関心を今持っているところでございます。 - 金融庁
