Our publication, ‘Navigating the Changes to International Reporting Standards’, is designed to give Chief Financial Officers a high-level awareness of these recent changes to IFRS.
After twenty years of development the IASB published IFRS 17 ‘Insurance Contracts’. This new Standard replaces IFRS 4 which was published in 2004.
Both IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ and IAS 10 ‘Events after the Reporting Period’ suggest that a departure from the going concern basis is required when specified circumstances exist. Neither Standard however provides any details of an alternative basis of preparation and how it may differ from the going concern basis.
This publication provides a high-level summary of recent changes to IFRS that will affect companies' future financial reporting.
