Nominations

The Standard-Setting Boards´ Nominations Committee (SSBNomCo) is a committee established by the PIOB which is responsible for the selection of members to the IAASB, the IESBA and the SAC.

In recommending appointments of IAASB and IESBA members to the PIOB, the SSBNomCo is guided by the principle that the primary criterion for the selection of nominees is the most suitable person for the available position, taking into consideration the need to balance the collective skills of the SSBs and the SAC, and to secure a composition that is diverse and made up of multi-stakeholders.

Diversity encompasses geographic, and varied skills and mindsets, and achieves a gender balance.
