“…In this regard coercive isomorphism on the backdrop of institutional pressures by organisations such as the World Bank and IMF (Judge, et al, 2010). For example majority of SMEs in Ghana are aware of the IFRS for SMEs, however these SMEs do not fully comply to the requirements of the IFRS for SMEs because of lack of technical skills (Vendy & Sucahyati, 2022), the reason why these SMEs are aware and adopted this standard is because of coercive isomorphism and environmental factors (Sappor, et al, 2023). Additionally, mimetic isomorphism is another adoption approach which involves SMEs copying adoption models of other more efficient organisations/ countries, this approach is normally used when there is uncertain operational environment and objectives (Damak-Ayadi, et al, 2019), copying more efficient organisations/ countries is considered more efficient and cost effective (Meyer & Rowan, 1977).…”

“…However, jurisdictions with their own set of SMEs standards are less likely to adopt the IFRS for SMEs, this finding is similar to (Kaya & Koch, 2015) who notes that jurisdictions that have the capacity to craft their own set of SME standards are reluctant to adopt the IFRS for SMEs. This drives the point home especially for developing nations which are not well resourced in terms of finance and skilled personnel (Albu, et al, 2011;Vendy & Sucahyati, 2022) to undertake the task of crafting their own set of accounting standards for SMEs.…”
