IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts
Understanding and Implementing Latest Accounting Standards Relevant to Insurance Contracts

About The Seminar

There are currently several accounting practices applicable to similar insurance contracts. However, substantial effort has been recently invested in the development of IFRS 17 to ensure that insurers reflect the effect of economic changes in their financial statements in a timely and transparent way. It is intended this will provide improved information about the current and future profitability of insurers, improve global comparability of financial statements and enhance the quality of financial information. In response to these changes, this two-day workshop will allow participants to understand and implement accounting standards for insurance contracts - IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 for insurers - which will come into effect on 1 January 2022.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

At the end of the course, participants will be equipped to:
