IASB issues ED Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Proposed amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements)

The IASB has published proposed narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements to help companies provide useful accounting policy disclosures to users of financial statements.
The proposals state that information about an accounting policy is material if, when considered together with other information included in a company’s financial statements, it can influence financial statement users’ decisions about the company.

The Exposure Draft Disclosure of Accounting Policies is open for comment until 29 November 2019.
