IASB: Proposed amendments to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

20 December 2011

The IASB published for public comment proposed amendments to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements to clarify the transition guidance.

The objective of the proposed amendments is to clarify the transition guidance in IFRS 10 by confirming when an entity needs to apply IFRS 10 retrospectively. The proposals should allay the concerns of some who thought that the transition provisions were more burdensome than originally intended.

It is proposed that the effective date of the proposed amendments would be aligned with the effective date of IFRS 10.

The exposure draft, 'Transition Guidance (Proposed amendments to IFRS 10)', is open for comment until 21 March, 2012.
