IFRS Project Insights

Each edition provides a summary of:

  • Current status - brief background and current steps being undertaken
  • Key decisions and proposals - high-level summaries of decisions to date and any consultation documents published
  • 'Thinking ahead' - key considerations for entities given the status of the project
  • Next steps - forthcoming deadlines or due process steps to be undertaken and guidelines as to when the project may be finalised.

Updates. Although IFRS Project Insights are updated on a regular basis, care should be taken prior to relying on them because of the frequency of IASB board meetings. We maintain detailed Deloitte observer notes from each IASB board meeting on our IASB meeting pages and a detailed history of each IASB project on our project pages.

Subscriptions. Registered users can subscribe to email notifications of new and updated issues of IFRS Project Insights in their communications options. We also announce new and updated issues on Twitter.
