IFRS 19 in Practice is a practical field guide to applying IFRS 19, the new disclosure Standard designed for eligible subsidiaries without public accountability.
Unlike a simplified accounting framework, IFRS 19 does not change recognition, measurement or presentation. Eligible entities continue to apply IFRS Accounting Standards in full, while benefiting from a reduced set of disclosure requirements. The real challenge is therefore determining who is eligible, whether to elect the Standard, which disclosures apply, and how to keep the election controlled as circumstances change.
This book translates IFRS 19 into practical implementation decisions. It explains the two-part eligibility test, public accountability, qualifying parents and intermediate parent structures, voluntary election, Standard-by-Standard disclosure reduction, group reporting architecture, systems and data requirements, governance and audit evidence.
Through two realistic composite case studies, eleven practical workshops, decision checkpoints and ready-to-use templates, readers learn how to build an eligibility register, establish a group election policy, map reduced disclosures, prepare audit-ready judgement papers and conduct a first reporting dry run.
Designed for accountants, auditors, CFOs, financial controllers, finance managers, group reporting teams, academics and advanced accounting students, this guide provides a compact route from eligibility assessment to the first reduced-disclosure report.
