Details
IAS 12
Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes - International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules
  • A mandatory temporary exception to the accounting for deferred taxes arising from the jurisdictional implementation of the Pillar Two model rules.
  • Disclosure requirements for affected entities to help users of the financial statements better understand an entity’s exposure to Pillar Two income taxes arising from that legislation, particularly before its effective date.
IAS 1
Amendments to IAS 1: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current
  • In January 2020 and October 2022, the IASB issued amendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 of IAS 1 to specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current.
  • The amendments clarify:
    1. What is meant by a right to defer settlement.
    2. That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period.
    3. That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right.
    4. That is only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would the terms of a liability not impact its classification.
IFRS 16
Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback
  • In September 2022, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 16 to specify the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction, to ensure the seller-lessee doesn’t recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains.
  • The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024.
IAS 7 and IFRS 7
Supplier Finance Arrangements - Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7
  • In May 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures to clarify the characteristics of supplier finance arrangements and require additional disclosure of such arrangements.
  • The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024.
IAS 21
Lack of exchangeability – Amendments to IAS 21
  • Lack of Exchangeability amends IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to require an entity to apply a consistent approach to assessing whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency and, when it is not, to determine the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide.
  • The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025.
IFRS 10 and IAS 28
Sale or Contribution of Assets between an investor and its Associate or Joint Venture – Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28
  • The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves assets that don’t constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary.
  • Early application of the amendments is still permitted and must be disclosed. The amendments must be applied prospectively.
IFRS 9 and IFRS 7
Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments – Amendments
  • In May 2024, the Board issued Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7).
  • The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026.
IFRS 18
IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
  • IFRS 18 introduces guidance on where information should be disclosed in the primary financial statements or the notes, enhanced requirements for grouping of information and using meaningful labels for items presented or disclosed and specific disaggregation requirements for presenting and disclosing operating expenses.
  • IFRS 18, and the amendments to the other accounting standards, is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and will apply retrospectively and in interim financial statements. Early adoption is permitted and must be disclosed.
IFRS 19
IFRS 19 - Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures
  • IFRS 19 simplifies financial reporting for eligible subsidiaries, enabling them to apply IFRS Accounting Standards with reduced disclosure requirements.
  • IFRS 19 is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.
