Course Details

Financial accountants need to constantly be aware of the most recent developments in financial reporting so that they can advise their clients on the likely impact of any likely changes on their financial statements.  

This session covers both the likely major changes to FRS 102 as a result of the triennial review commenced in March 2021 as well as the major changes taking place in international reporting which will ultimately impact FRS 102.

The major changes likely to impact the future preparation of financial reporting under FRS 102 will include:

  • The publication of an Exposure Draft to update FRS 102 as part of the triennial review process
  • Supplier finance arrangements
  • The exposure drafts on sustainability issued by the ISSB
  • Non current liabilities with covenants
  • Financial instruments with characteristics of equity
