  • Deloitte comment letter on the tentative agenda decision on sale and leaseback in a corporate wrapper

    published 24 Nov 2020

    We agree that the IFRS Interpretations Committee’s conclusions as laid out in the agenda decision reflect the requirements of IFRS 10 and IFRS 16 in relation to the specific fact pattern presented therein. However, we strongly suggest that in addition to this decision the Board takes on a broader project to address the treatment of the sale of corporate wrappers, in particular when, if ever, these should be accounted for as sales of assets rather than subsidiaries.
