The forthcoming insurance contracts Standard—Webinar Series

 04 April 2016

In January 2016, the International Accounting Standards Board (the Board) completed its planned technical decisions for the forthcoming insurance contracts Standard.

We have posted the first in a weekly series of webinars providing an overview of those tentative decisions:

• The need for change and the history of the project (12:44 mins)

Future episodes will cover:

• What is an insurance contract?
• Initial measurement of insurance contracts
• Subsequent measurement of insurance contracts
• Modifications to the general model: variable fee contracts
• Other modifications to the general model
• Presentation and disclosure
• Applying the Standard for the first time
