Study Notes
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
- Adoption of IAS 39: The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) adopted IAS 39 in 2001, for the recognition and measurement of financial instruments originally issued by the IAS Committee in 1999.
- Replacement of IAS 39: The IASB intended IFRS 9 to entirely replace IAS 39. This was implemented in phases, with new chapters replacing corresponding sections of IAS 39 as those phases were completed.
- Financial Asset Classification and Measurement: IFRS 9 introduced classification and measurement requirements for financial assets in 2009.
- Financial Liability Classification and Measurement: In 2010, IFRS 9 included requirements for financial liability classification and measurement, including embedded derivatives and own credit risk.
- Derecognition: IFRS 9 standardized requirements for derecognizing financial assets and liabilities, including carrying forward some existing IAS 39 requirements.
- Hedge Accounting chapter: IFRS 9 added a chapter on hedge accounting in 2013. Entities have the option to use either IFRS 9 or IAS 39 for hedge accounting, and both remain effective.
- Limited Amendments (2014): IFRS 9 was amended in 2014 addressing certain application questions and introducing a 'fair value through other comprehensive income' measurement category for debt instruments. Impairment requirements related to expected credit losses were also added.
- Amendments to IFRS 17 (2017): IFRS 17 on Insurance Contracts amended IFRS 9's derecognition requirements.
- Amendments (2017): Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation (Amendments to IFRS 9) were added in 2017, to specify the measurement of particular financial assets with prepayment features.
- Interest Rate Benchmark Reform: Amendments were made in 2019 and 2020 to IFRS 9 and IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4, and IFRS 16, regarding interest rate benchmark reform to financial instruments and hedging relationships.
IFRS 9 Structure and Content
- Objective: To establish principles for financial reporting of financial instruments with a focus on presenting relevant and useful information to users (investors) for assessing future cash flows.
- Scope: Covers the financial reporting of all financial instruments, excluding certain interests in subsidiaries, associates, and joint ventures, and rights and obligations under leases. Specific exclusions are detailed.
- Recognition and Derecognition: Provides guidance on when to recognize and when to remove financial assets and financial liabilities from financial statements.
- Classification: Describes how to classify financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss, depending on their business model and contractual cash flows.
- Measurement: Covers initial and subsequent measurement, including impairment, of assets relating to the classification.
- Hedge Accounting: Detailing the requirements for hedging accounting.
- Effective Date and Transition: Specifies the effective date of the standard including transition guidance.
- Amendments: Describes specific amendments and transitions to the IFRS 9 standard. It is critical to follow any amendments to the standard because otherwise the approach is not considered up-to-date.
