iGAAP Alert - November 2012Fair value rules - new requirements for investment entities |
|
Background
Where an entity qualifies as an ‘investment entity’ it does not consolidate its subsidiaries but measures its investment at fair value.
Consideration of the criteria for meeting the definition of an ‘investment entity’ will require a degree of judgement based on facts and circumstances.
These changes may impact entities beyond those traditionally seen as investment-type entities.
