SYSCOHADA (Système Comptable OHADA) is the standardized accounting framework adopted by member states of OHADA.

Key changes in the revised SYSCOHADA include:
- Enhanced consolidation rules for group accounts
- New requirements for lease accounting
- Improved guidance on financial instruments
- Alignment with IFRS for SMEs
