Notes: The graph depicts major regulatory changes that we identified via an extensive literature search, an online survey of mentioned authors, and other sources. Please note that the graph does not include all possible regulatory changes, e.g. minor revisions to local GAAP or tax rate changes below 3% are not included. The dates of EU Directives are based on the official transposition deadlines unless denoted with a *, in which case we included the entry-to-force date as identified in the literature. For more information, please go to Labro and Pierk (2023). We kindly ask that you cite the paper if you use the information on this website in your research project.
