Beyond the GAAP no.192 - October 2024
With a few weeks to go until the 2024 year-end, the European market regulator, ESMA, has published its recommendations for 2024 reporting. These cover both IFRS financial reporting and the first ESRS sustainability statements. This issue includes special features on both sets of recommendations.
Beyond the GAAP no. 191 – September 2024
The IASB continues to be very busy with standard-setting work around the topic of financial instruments, with redeliberations ongoing on the proposed amendments to the rules on PPA and VPPA contracts, and the launch of a research project on amortised cost measurement. It has also begun new projects to clarify or improve some older standards, publishing an exposure draft to address application questions relating to the equity method (IAS 28) and launching another research project on the statement of cash flows (IAS 7).
Beyond the GAAP no.190 - July-August 2024
On the financial reporting front, this European summer saw the IASB publish multiple exposure drafts, including one that proposes illustrative examples of how to apply current IFRS® Accounting Standards to report the effects of climate-related and other uncertainties in financial statements. This proposal, which responds to significant stakeholder demand, will certainly give rise to interesting discussions over the coming months.
Beyond the GAAP no.189 - June 2024
At the end of May, the IASB published amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, which are mandatory for financial periods commencing on or after 1 January 2026. In this issue, we look in detail at the content of these amendments, which introduce some changes and clarifications relating to financial liabilities settled using an electronic payment system, financial assets with contingent payment features, financial assets with non-recourse features, and contractually linked financial assets. They also require additional disclosures to be presented in the notes.
