IFRS 12 combines, enhances and replaces the disclosure requirements for subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. As a consequence of these new IFRSs, the IASB also issued the amended IAS 27 and IAS 28.

Each company shall apply IFRS 10, IFRS 11, IFRS 12, the amended IAS 27, the amended IAS 28, at the latest, as from the commencement date of its first financial year starting on or after 1 January 2014.
