01 Jul, 2011

The IASB has published an updated work plan, outlining the expecting finalisation of its projects, with many of the major projects not expected to result in a finalised IFRS until 2012.

The following is a summary of the revised timing of projects:

  • Revenue recognition – re-exposure in the third quarter of 2011 (as previously announced), target date for a completed IFRS in the first half of 2012
  • Leases – also to be re-exposed in the third quarter of 2011, with a target date of completed IFRS in the first half of 2012
  • Financial instruments:
  • Consolidation – exposure draft on investment companies to be published in July (on the same day as the FASB proposals)
  • Insurance contracts – re-exposure of a review draft expected in the fourth quarter of 2011, with a target date of a completed IFRS in the first half of 2012
  • Agenda consultation – a Request for Views arising from the three-yearly public consultation on the IASB's future technical agenda is expected in the third quarter of 2011.
