  • IFRS 9, Financial Instruments Understanding the Basics Introduction
    www.pwc.com/ifrs9 IFRS 9, Financial Instruments Understanding the basics Introduction Revenue isn’t the only new IFRS to worry about for 2018—there is IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, to consider as well. Contrary to widespread belief, IFRS 9 affects more than just financial institutions. Any entity could have significant changes to its financial reporting as the result of this standard. That is certain to be the case for those with long-term loans, equity investments, or any non- vanilla financial assets. It might even be the case for those only holding short- term receivables. It all depends. Possible consequences of IFRS 9 include: • More income statement volatility. IFRS 9 raises the risk that more assets will have to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit and loss as they arise. • Earlier recognition of impairment losses on receivables and loans, including trade receivables. Entities will have to start providing for possible future credit losses in the very first reporting period a loan goes on the books – even if it is highly likely that the asset will be fully collectible. • Significant new disclosure requirements—the more significantly impacted may need new systems and processes to collect the necessary data. IFRS 9 also includes significant new hedging requirements, which we address in a separate publication – Practical guide – General hedge accounting. With careful planning, the changes that IFRS 9 introduces might provide a great opportunity for balance sheet optimization, or enhanced efficiency of the reporting process and cost savings. Left too long, they could lead to some nasty surprises.

  • Ifrs-9-Presentation-Of-Interest-Revenue-For-Particular-Financial-Instruments-Mar-18.Pdf
    Presentation of interest revenue for particular financial instruments (IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements)—March 2018 The Committee received a request about the effect of the consequential amendment that IFRS 9 made to paragraph 82(a) of IAS 1. That consequential amendment requires an entity to present separately, in the profit or loss section of the statement of comprehensive income or in the statement of profit or loss, interest revenue calculated using the effective interest method. The request asked whether that requirement affects the presentation of fair value gains and losses on derivative instruments that are not part of a designated and effective hedging relationship (applying the hedge accounting requirements in IFRS 9 or IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement). Appendix A to IFRS 9 defines the term ‘effective interest method’ and other related terms. Those interrelated terms pertain to the requirements in IFRS 9 for amortised cost measurement and the expected credit loss impairment model. In relation to financial assets, the Committee observed that the effective interest method is a measurement technique whose purpose is to calculate amortised cost and allocate interest revenue over the relevant time period. The Committee also observed that the expected credit loss impairment model in IFRS 9 is part of, and interlinked with, amortised cost accounting. The Committee noted that amortised cost accounting, including interest revenue calculated using the effective interest method and credit losses calculated using the expected credit loss impairment model, is applied only to financial assets that are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income.

  • IFRS 9 and Expected Loss Provisioning – Executive Summary
    IFRS 9 and expected loss provisioning – Executive Summary The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and other accounting standard setters set out principles-based standards on how banks should recognise and provide for credit losses for financial statement reporting purposes. In July 2014, the IASB issued International Financial Reporting Standard 9 – Financial Instruments (IFRS 9), which introduced an “expected credit loss” (ECL) framework for the recognition of impairment. This Executive Summary provides an overview of the ECL framework under IFRS 9 and its impact on the regulatory treatment of accounting provisions in the Basel capital framework. What’s different about impairment recognition under IFRS 9? Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, IFRS 9 sets out how an entity should classify and measure financial assets and financial liabilities. Its scope includes the recognition of impairment. In the standard that preceded IFRS 9, the “incurred loss” framework required banks to recognise credit losses only when evidence of a loss was apparent. Under IFRS 9’s ECL impairment framework, however, banks are required to recognise ECLs at all times, taking into account past events, current conditions and forecast information, and to update the amount of ECLs recognised at each reporting date to reflect changes in an asset’s credit risk. It is a more forward-looking approach than its predecessor and will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. Expected credit loss framework – scope of application Under IFRS 9, financial assets are classified according to the business model for managing them and their cash flow characteristics. In essence, if (a) a financial asset is a simple debt instrument such as a loan, (b) the objective of the business model in which it is held is to collect its contractual cash flows (and generally not to sell the asset) and (c) those contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, then the financial asset is held at amortised cost.
