IFRS 17 provides consistent principles for all aspects of accounting for insurance contracts. It removes existing inconsistencies and enables investors, analysts and others to meaningfully compare companies, contracts and industries.
Who Needs to Comply with IFRS17?
IFRS 17 applies to insurance contracts. Although this means that IFRS 17 affects any company that writes insurance contracts, such contracts are generally not written by companies outside of the insurance industry.
When Does it Come Into Effect?
IFRS 17 is effective from 1 January 2023
