French generally accepted accounting principles

The French generally accepted accounting principles, called Plan Comptable Général (PCG) is defined by the regulation 99-03 from the Committee of the Accountancy Regulation (Comité de la Réglementation Comptable, abbr. CRC),[1] validated by the Minister of the Budget. In the future, changes will be suggested by the Authority of Accounting Rules (Autorité des normes comptables, abbr. ANC) which was created by the ordonnance no 2009-79 and combines the functions of the prior CRC and CNC.[2]
