EU, UK, Japan, Australia, Canada (2024), Brazil, India, South Korea, and most
of Asia and Africa. The US (GAAP) is the major holdout.
Why it matters: [[id:fc736aec-ef53-4759-9787-62bc8deea2e7][IFRS]] 17 and IFRS 9 are algorithmically complex rule sets.
Getting an actuarial model or credit loss calculation wrong is a financial
reporting error. The gate stack's ACL2 prover can verify that the calculation
implementations match the standard's mathematical requirements. First-mover
advantage: IFRS 17 was the largest accounting change in a decade. Implementation
was a crisis for insurers. The next wave (IFRS 18, sustainability disclosures
via ISSB) is coming. A verified IFRS gate package is a unique value proposition.
** UN/CEFACT (UN Centre for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business)
UN standards for electronic data interchange (EDI), trade facilitation, and
cross-border data exchange. Key standards: UN/EDIFACT (trade data), Core
Component Library (CCL), Multi-Modal Transport Reference Data Model. Basis
for WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement compliance.
Who must comply: Customs authorities, logistics providers, trade finance banks,
exporters/importers in 170+ WTO member countries.
Why it matters: Cross-border trade data exchange is rule-intensive (tariff
classification, rules of origin, customs valuation, sanitary/phytosanitary
requirements). The gate stack can encode trade compliance rules and prove that
every cross-border data exchange satisfies the applicable regulation. First-mover
advantage: trade compliance is a $15B market dominated by legacy SAP/Oracle
modules and customs brokerages. None use verification.
