The 2010 Handbook of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants will remain in effect during 2011.

The handbook contains the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code), which has been revised by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA) for improved clarity and strengthened independence requirements. The revised Code became effective on January 1, 2011.

The handbook is available to purchase as a three-volume set with Parts I and II of the 2010 Handbook of International Quality Control, Auditing, Review, Other Assurance, and Related Services Pronouncements, which includes all the IAASB's pronouncements.
