USPAP and The International Valuation Standards
While USPAP and the IVS aim at essentially the same goals, there remain significant differences between the two sets of standards. These differences result primarily from accumulated differences in appraisal methodology. In June, 2006, the International Valuation Standards Committee and the Appraisal Foundation jointly issued a memorandum of understanding, called the "Madison Agreement", in which they pledged to work together toward the goal of reconciling the differences between the two sets of standards.

Famous quotes containing the word standards:
“The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds, and sometimes he needs somebody, his pal or his mother or his wife or God, to give him that confidence. He’s got to have some inner standards worth fighting for or there won’t be any way to bring him into conflict. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That’s all there is to it.”
—Clark Gable (1901–1960)
