COVID-19 was declared as a global health emergency by the World Health Organisation (?WHO?) on 30 January 2020 following which national governments took action. As such, the effects of COVID-19 were generally a ?non-adjusting event? for financial reporting purposes, and forecasts, projections and associated assumptions used in preparing financial statements as at 31 December 2019 would reflect either little or no change. Financial statements will need to incorporate the effects of COVID-19 for reporting periods ending on or after 31 January 2020.
Lenders around the world are nearly all impacted and the financial reporting implications may be similarly broad. Precise effects will depend on the facts and circumstances of each lender. As the effects of the outbreak change and evolve, it may become difficult to distinguish which information, facts and circumstances should be incorporated into measurement as at period end and which should result in potential subsequent event disclosure.
This webinar seeks to address a number of these issues, other than those which relate to IFRS 9, for 31 December 2019 and subsequent period-ends in terms of both the annual financial statements and interim financial reports. It also seeks to address matters that relate to going concern assessments and preparing the annual report, given these assessments and statements are prepared on a more forward-looking basis.
