2026 Day two agenda - BST (British Summer Time, GMT+1)
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements is set to reshape how every preparer using IFRS Accounting Standards presents earnings—and it becomes effective in less than a year.
With many entities already in their comparative periods, are you keeping up with the latest implementation developments?
Join preparers who are already reporting in accordance with the new Standard, along with auditors advising on its application, to gain practical insights.
The workshop will also explore recent IFRS Interpretations Committee Agenda Decisions and the real-world challenges organisations are encountering as they implement IFRS 18.
