Sector-specific standards in eight areas will nonetheless be published as soon as they are ready with respect to high-impact sectors. In January, EFRAG also issued its proposals regarding an ESRS for listed SMEs and a voluntary standard for non-listed SMEs.
With respect to financial reporting, the IASB continued its deliberations on draft amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, considering comment letters received. The IASB’s discussions focused on the SPPI qualification and associated indicators, as well as on financial assets with non-recourse features and contractually linked instruments, for which stakeholders expressed reservations about the existence of alternative structures avoiding the application for requirements of the standard.
