Objectifs

Keeping up with the latest doctrine is an important part of the job of every accounting expert. Since a few years, the number of recommendations issued by the CNC is increasing and is tackling important topics on which the accounting law is silent. Which currency can be used as a presentation currency and how to convert at year-end? What is the impact in case of a change of accounting method? These are 2 examples of the questions this module will address and answer using the CNC recommendations and our experts' market experience.

This training aims at giving you all the information and latest doctrine issued by the Luxembourg Accounting Board ("Commission des Normes Comptables" or "CNC").
This training will be delivered by experts who will share their view and their experience on the market impact in terms of accounting.
