The job of International Accounting
Standards Board (IASB) chairman should be split in two, according

ends in mid-2011 and the hunt is already on for a replacement.

“David Tweedie has a very tough job
because his job has two aspects to it that I think are mutually
exclusive,” Newman said.
At present, the IASB chair must both be a
strong technician, and an adept politician.
“I think it is unrealistic to expect one
person to have the skills to do both of those jobs,” Newman
added.
