Standard 1  
Disclosure of expected impact of initial application of new standards or interpretations [line items]  
Standard IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments
Main items introduced by the standard

The standard retains but simplifies the combined measurement model and establishes two main measurement categories of financial assets: amortized cost and fair value. The classification basis depends on the entity business model and the characteristics of the financial asset’s contractual cash flow.

 

IFRS 9 retains most of IAS 39 requirements for financial liabilities. The main change refers to those cases where the fair value of the financial liabilities must be segregated so that the fair value portion related to the entities credit risk is recognized in “other comprehensive income” and not in profit or loss for the period.

 

The standard introduces an expected credit loss model for the measurement of the impairment of financial assets. However, it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before a credit loss is recognized. Finally, IFRS 9 introduces a new hedge accounting model that is designed to be more closely aligned with how entities undertake risk management activities when hedging financial and non-financial risk exposures.

 

The requirements for derecognition of financial assets and liabilities under IFRS 9 are carried forward from IAS 39.

Disclosure of expected impact of initial application of new standards or interpretations [line items]  
Standard IFRS16 - Leases
Main items introduced by the standard

This new standard defines the principles for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and introduces a single model for the accounting of leases in the balance sheet for the lessees. A lessee recognizes a right-of-use asset that represents his obligation to make lease payments. Optional exemptions are available for short- term leases and low-value items. For lessors, accounting treatment remains practically the same, with the classification of leases as operating leases or financial leases, and accounting for these two types of lease differently. IFRS 16 replaces existing lease standards, including IAS 17 – Leasing Operations and IFRIC 4, SIC 5 and SIC 27 – Complementary Aspects of Leasing Operations.
