Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the significance of using International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) in impacting the quality of accounting information.
Theoretical framework: Recent literature has revealed positive results in IPSAS and accounting information quality (Bakhtah & Ammar, 2019). However, because IPSAS is a relatively new product, there is still plenty to research and learn about it.
Methodology: The study population included a number of board directors, non-audited members, internal auditors, accountants, and department heads from various branches of government in Libya's government sector. They were given 400 questionnaires, and the data was analysed using SPSS and PLS-SEM.
Findings: The four independent factors (ensuring sound governance, disclosure, board of directors responsibilities, and shareholder rights preservation) had a substantial impact on the quality of accounting information among Libyan bank personnel.
Research, Practical & Social implications: We propose a future research agenda and highlight contributions to knowledge, namely auditing literature and the quality of accounting information literature.
Originality/value: The findings show that the adoption of IPSAS will have an effect on an external audit in Libya. IPSAS standardises external audit reports and has an impact on external audit notes. The implementation of IPSAS will result in the collaboration of Libyan audit firms with global audit firms to gain experience auditing IPSAS-prepared financial statements. This will improve the conclusions and knowledge of worldwide accounting standards of the external auditors.
