Insurance contracts – IFRS 17
4 heure(s)
Objectifs
Introduction
IFRS 17 will fundamentally change the accounting requirements for insurers. The insurer will need to use new measurement models and accounting principles, which will increase the comparability of financial statements. This will result in significant changes to how the profit will be recognised, the way the financial information will be presented, and the adoption of the standard will need extensive planning. There are a number of decisions and choices to be made when implementing the new standard. Our IFRS 17 specialists will explain the key areas of risk and critical success factors in an IFRS 17 implementation project.
Our course is designed to get an initial working knowledge of the rules, how the numbers are constructed and presented and the story that they are telling.
