21 Nov 2001
IASB has published its sixth batch of IAS 39 Guidance developed by the Board's IAS 39 Implementation Guidance Committee (IGC).
This batch includes 17 Q&A; and two examples. One of the examples addresses the particularly difficult issue of applying hedge accounting when a bank or other financial institution manages its interest rate risk on an enterprise-wide basis. Another example focuses on internal derivatives. IASB has indicated that IGC has not scheduled further meetings. IASB is developing some amendments to IAS 39.
